Verse
Bb
His body loved her
                    A
His mind was set on other things
          Bb
Keep your face out of sight
                     A
And your thoughts to yourself

Pre Chorus
Am                                 (C,B,Bb,A)
And this went on for several nights
Ab                                   Bb
Festering in silence, growing in the dark  

Chorus
                     F
And this they saw as love
     G
LO~~VE,
          F#
so sad to see
                  F
they suffocate at night
                     F
Oh this they saw as love
     G
LO~~VE, 
          F#
so sad to see
                 F
to see it slowly die

She met his wishes
He found that he had changed his mind
Now the fit is too tight
And the bedroom too warm

The days are filled with things to do
But night-time lies so hollow, and memories betray

Oh memories of love,
LOVE,
so sad to see
they suffocate at night
and this they saw as love,
LOVE,
so sad to see,
to see it slowly die.

2 years have passed.
2 years of emptiness inside.
And the grey skies above
Just show how far I went wrong

I wonder if she's living there?
The way that I recall, the way I'll always think of you
(and when I think of you...

...I think of love,
LOVE,
So sad to see,
they suffocate at night, you know
I think of love,
LOVE,
So sad to see,
To see it slowly die.)

I wrote you a letter
I threw it away
I wrote you a letter
I threw it away...
I need her, I know I don't need her
I need her, oh
la la la la la la la
