Go on stack the cinder blocks in a cold sweat Build yourself a citadel amid the foothills of regret And though you've convinced yourself, you're safe and sound within The thing you fear the most never need get in 'Cause you'll miss the sun, the warmth of another's embrace You'll need room to run and something to chase And that thing you fear will coax you out of that unholy place As all you've ever wanted is an escape Those of us who vow never to love again, to love again Are making liars out of honest men It's not something that you put to bed, hang your head and just forget No, love don't know how to rest No, love don't know how to rest Darling, when you've tired, you will see There is no safe place, no sanctuary It's all just child's play, a game of hide and seek Don't make it harder than it has to be Those of us who vow never to love again, to love again Are making liars out of honest men It's not something that you put to bed, hang your head and just forget No, love don't know how to rest No, love don't know how to rest Here's the truest thing I've ever known The heart is just a muscle with a rhythm all its own It doesn't stop when you decide not to move on The heart knows nothing of your love or of your loss So life just keeps on ticking by Compelled by instinct to survive And love's the only thing worth being alive for And love's the only worth being alive for Those of us who vow never to love again, to love again Are making liars out of honest men It's not something that you put to bed, hang your head and just forget No, love don't know how to rest No, love don't know how to rest It's okay, it's okay
