Let Love Not Weigh Me Down by Ed Harcourt Lyrics

Let love not weigh me down
Let the cursed air be clean
When you've lost faith in the human race
Let love not weigh you down

Let love not cause me pain
Oh, let it all seem like a dream
And I won't regret what I can forget
Let love not cause you pain

So let your beauty blind my vision
Oh, let it move me 'til I die
And the seeds of despair won't be fruits that I bear
Let your beauty blind my vision

So shed all the tears that you want
Run from the places you haunt
If you think you're lost or just double-crossed
Don't try to make sense of it all
Let the music and words take you back
To the times when your heart wasn't cracked
We won't be suffering with drugs and bad medicine
We'll drink 'til the curtain calls
Let love not weigh me down
Let its weakness be my guide
And all this intensity makes perfect sense to me
Let love not weigh you down

Shed all the tears that you want
Run from the places you haunt
If you think you're lost or just double-crossed
Don't try to make sense of it all
Let the music and words take you back
To the times when your heart wasn't cracked
We won't be suffering with drugs and bad medicine
We'll drink 'til the curtain calls

We'll drink 'til the curtain calls
