Too Much Love Is Wasted

You don't think I know
You've been watching me
With a sad, bewildered look in your eyes
Suddenly I am almost becoming a stranger
Now's the crucial moment, the hour of truth
No more dodging, no excuses or lies
So if you have the feeling our love is in danger

Please don't give it up, give it one more day
Don't you know it's much too precious to throw away

Too much love is wasted
When the flame is burning low
And I should know I let it wither
When I should have made it grow
And so I lost one lover
And I don't intend to lose another

Too much love is wasted
When the passion's fading out
You start to doubt, you lose the sight of
What it's really all about
The end of the beginning
Let's not make it the beginning of the end

You know how it started and so do I
All is magic when a new love is born
Couldn't believe my fortune, at last I had found you
There's a different feeling between us now
And you seem a little lost and forlorn
There is a hint of heartache and sadness around you

Breaking up is one thing I won't allow
We just cannot let it slip
Through our fingers now

Too much love is wasted
When the flame is burning low
And I should know I let it wither
When I should have made it grow
And so I lost one lover
And I don't intend to lose another

Too much love is wasted
When the passion's fading out
You start to doubt, you lose the sight of
What it's really all about
The end of the beginning
Let's not make it the beginning of the end

I lost one lover
And I don't intend to lose another
