Let Love Not Weigh Me Down - Ed Harcourt

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
