I'm not even going to try to say,
that I'm the only one to ever, never want to love again

I know all four noble truths of Buddha and the philosophies of Zen,
but they only eased the pain of where I've been

What it all comes back to now is this,
it can fall from just one kiss
bitterness melts like chocolate in your hand, in your hand

There's only one light in this world that could pick me up
from where I've fallen,
thats from a girl like you
There's only one light in this world that could pick me up
from where I've fallen,
thats from a girl like you

I put my heart up on the shelf, and sought the path of inner self
for the most part I've got everything I need
I'm only missing one thing now, and I thought I'd probably do without
but life without love isn't worth living much at all

(Chorus)
