  • So long since I've waited
    To live again
    You've brought my world to an end
    Love takes its victim and leaves its remains
    My broken heart has died in vain
    Tell me why have we forsaken the dreams we had
    The pain makes it so hard to understand
    You're a lifetime ago but a memory away
    And I'll love you till my resurrection day
    Love kills the fire's gone
    Dying embers still remain
    Love kills and now you're gone
    Girl, I'll never be the same again
    Without your love, seems so dead and unreal
    And now there's nothing left to feel
    Someday we'll meet again, girl that much I know
    At heaven's gate we'll say hello
    Now I hear the wind is calling my lonely,
    Lonely soul
    For sorrow's trembling hands please let me go
    Love's dying sin is just dust in the wind
    I face the other side of no tomorrow
    Love kills the fire's gone
    Dying ember still remains
    Love kills and now you're gone
    Girl I'll never be the same
    Love kills and love is just a dying ember in the rain
    Love kills a heart betrayed, Lord please, please
    Please ease my pain, love kills
    Girl I need your love
    Love kills with all its heart Writer/s: VINCENT CUSANO
