Frank & Ava Lyrics

On the way to the bidet
Is when the trouble used to start
It didn't mean she wasn't queen
Of the tinderbox that was his heart

Her fire, his desire meant that
Everything must come undone
And so now we know
That it's not enough to be in love

Not enough to be in love (x2)

He's so true, she is too
She says, I love you, Frank and then they drank
All night, what a fight
He says it isn't me you're thinking of

She's cool, it makes him cruel
And they needle 'til the jewels go raining
Down upon the ground
She says it's not enough to be in love

It's not enough, it's not enough
It's not enough to be in love
It's not enough, it's not enough
(Not enough to be in love)
It's not enough to be in love

They woke up and they broke up
They were so volatile and all the while
Life passed and it went fast
And yet they never could forget

Their chemistry, like you and me
It proved to keep them both apart for life
And so now we know
That it's not enough to be in love

Not enough to be in love (x4)
