When you were young
and on your own
How did it feel
to be alone?
I was always thinking
of games that I was playing.
Trying to make
the best of my time.
But only love
can break your heart
Try to be sure
right from the start
Yes only love
can break your heart
What if your world
should fall apart?
I have a friend
I've never seen
He hides his head
inside a dream
Someone should call him
and see if he can come out.
Try to lose
the down that he's found.
But only love
can break your heart
Try to be sure
right from the start
Yes only love
can break your heart
What if your world
should fall apart?
I have a friend
I've never seen
He hides his head
inside a dream
Yes, only love
can break your heart
Yes, only love
can break your heart

Review about Only Love Can Break Your Heart only love can...great | Reviewer: Dave Rutherford | 12/22/2007
It is easy to focus on the meaning and content of Neil's more "serious" lyrics. That is unfortunate because often times his less serious stuff contains the best prose and is esoterically loaded with imagery. "Only Love" hides some real gems and has very easy to follow images and ideas. I remember a Creative Writing Professor once telling my class that the best poetry is not veiled in hidden meanings that must be deciphered. The best poetry has clear, easy to understand images that are aparent to to a wide cross section of the listening audience. Neil does that very well in Only Love. Don't ya think?
Thanx...Dave
