lyrics

Love Bottled

Love bottled gets throttled,
Love wrapped won’t adapt.

Love weighed is afraid,
Love planned is too bland.

Chorus :
Love aided gets jaded,
Love bragged will be snagged.
Love blamed will be maimed,
Love well fed falls down dead.

Love watched will be botched,
Love pledged will be hedged.

The rings that you tossed
To encircle my heart,
And to capture it,
Were too small.
You had the direction,
The distance, the art,
The affection,
The wherewithal,
But the rings that fate gave you,
Right from the start,
Were a trick, love:
The rings were too small.

Chorus :
Love aided gets jaded,
Love bragged will be snagged.
Love blamed will be maimed,
Love well fed falls down dead.

Love that grants has a chance,
And love freed may succeed.
