Love and Let Love Lyrics

There are pictures of me
Around your room
You come on strong
Too much too soon
And unfortunately
I'm not amused
Don't get me wrong
Don't get confused

This is the last time I love and let love

Yeah, yeah
There are certain things
You can't for see
I have visions of you
But not with me
You know it's not like us
To disagree
You'll get the point
Eventually

This is the last time I love and let love

It is a long, long way to February
Where the ocean meets the sun
Got me wonderin' is this necessary
When we've only just begun

This is the last time I love and let love

The grass is greener
The air is sweeter
You have to see her
To believe her
A great deceiver
Won't help you either
You're only fallin'
Deeper and deeper

It is a long, long way to February
Where the ocean meets the sun
Got me thinkin', is this necessary
When we've only just begun

It's a long, long way
Such a long, long way
It's a long, long way to February
Where the ocean meets the sun

Cover art for Love and Let Love lyrics by Gossip

Fantastic transcription, especially compared to others - this is one of my favourite on the 'Men In Love' album. A couple of minor corrections:

1) It's "There are certain things you can't foresee" - not 'for see'. This is key to the verse, since 'foresee' means to peer into the future, and is referenced in the next line regarding the narrator's lack of ability to see the antagonist in her envisioned future.

2) Unless this is a reference to a remix I haven't heard, the line as heard on the album track is: "a great deceiver, don't ever leave her', not 'a great deceiver, won't help you either'. "Deceive her" and "leave here" rhyme better. :o)

Otherwise, you've got it spot on. Thanks for the effort and care you put into transcribing this song!

Lyric Correction

Oops - correction to my own comment; should read: "Deceive her" and "leave her" rhyme better ;o) And you could, given Beth's soul-driven and Southern-influenced vocal signature/accents (especially in the band's earlier releases, i.e., 'Two hours south of Memphis, y'all"..."well it's all done and in the past, and that's good enough fo' me"...maybe not the best example, but that's what's comin' ta mind right now), probably transcribe that as "leave 'er".
