Love Comes in Spurts - Johnny Thunders, The Heartbreakers

I was a child

Who wanted a love so wild

Though tight as slow motion

But craved with devotion, baby

Insane with devotion

Just a whole other notion

I was fourteen and a half

And it wasn’t no laugh

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(It always hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no)

I just can’t get wise

To those tragical lies

Though I now know the facts

They still cut like an axe

Maybe love comes in spurts

In dangerous flirts

And it murders your heart

They didn’t tell you that part

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(It always)

I just can’t get wise

To those tragical lies

Though I now know the facts

They still cut like an axe

Maybe love comes in spurts

In dangerous flirts

And it murders your heart

They didn’t tell you that part, baby

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, oh no, oh no)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(It always hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, it hurts)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no)

Love comes in spurts

(Oh no, oh no, oh no)
