Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough

Life is short; may be very too short.

I don’t know how long I have to keep being like this.

May be someday I lost my own self.

Hope that day I never notice how my old self is;

It’s very tough to hate own self on some mistake that we can choose to be.

This one is my most recommended version; Patty Smyth. Compare with Sun Yan Zi (楊明學) or Stefanie Sun.

I think both have the great point.

But now enjoy this version.

I don’t want to lose you
and I don’t want to use you
just to have somebody by my side.
and I don’t want to hate you,
I don’t want to take you
but I don’t want to be the one to cry.

That don’t really matter to anyone anymore.
Like a fool I keep losing my place
I keep seeing you walk through that door.

But there’s a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it’s sad when you know it’s your heart you can’t trust.
There’s a reason why people won’t stay where they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain’t enough.

I could never change you
and I don’t want to blame you.
Baby, you don’t have to take the fall.
Yes, I may have hurt you, but I did not desert you.
Maybe I just want to have it all.

It makes a sound like thunder
and it makes me feel like rain.
Like a fool who will never see the truth,
I keep thinking something gonna change.

but there’s a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it’s sad when you know it’s your heart you can’t trust.
There’s a reason why people won’t stay where they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain’t enough.

and there’s no way home
when it’s late at night and you’re all alone.
Are there things that you wanted to say?
Do you feel me beside you in your bed,
there beside you, where I used to lay?

And there’s a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it’s sad when you know it’s your heart they can’t touch.
There’s a reason why people don’t stay who they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain’t enough.

Baby, sometimes, LOVE
just ain’t enough.

Love.
