Beaten Up In Love Again

by The Thrashing Doves

on Affinity (1991)

I'm beaten up in love again
I'm all tied down with doubt
You love me, oh, so strongly now
When I'm too weak to work it out

I'm beaten up in love again
So close to giving up
I walk a little slower now
I don't talk about it much
Don't make me talk about it now

I'm beaten up in love again
Your beauty is no cure
Don't try to lose your conscience, babe
Your kisses are not pure
Oh, no, your kisses are not pure

I feel cold and passive now
I never was before
I love your body next to mine
But it only hurts me more
Only hurts me more

So try to get some sleep now, babe
Don't hold me, oh, so tight
If you want to make it up me
Don't try to make it right
Oh, please, don't try to make it right

I'm beaten up in love again
I'm all tied down with doubt
You love me, oh, so strongly now
Don't try to make it right

I'm beaten up in love again
I'm all tied, tied down with doubt
Oh, yeah
Don't try to take me over, baby
Don't try to make it right
No, please, don't try to make it right
Oh, baby, ooh, baby

I'm beaten up in love again
I'm all tied, tied down with doubt
I'm beaten up in love again
Don't try to make it right

I'm beaten up in love again
I'm all tied, tied down with doubt
Oh, yeah
I said I'm beaten up
I'm beaten up in love again
It happens all the time
It happens all the time
