The back of love


i'm on the chopping block
chopping off my stopping thought
self doubt and selfism
were the cheapest things
i ever bought

when you say it's love
d'you mean the back of love
we're taken advantage of
breaking the back of love
we're taking advantage of
breaking the back of love

easier said than done you said
but it's more difficult to say
with eyes bigger than our bellies
we want to
but we can't look away
what were you thinking of
when you dreamt that up

when you're surrounded by
a simple chain of eventseventually
you'll shack those shackles off

we can't tell our left from right
but we know we love extremes
getting to grips with the ups and downs
because there's nothing in between
when you say that's love
d'you mean the back of love

when you say it's love
d'you mean the back of love
we're taken advantage of
breaking the back of love
we're taking advantage of
breaking the back of love

what were you thinking of
when you dreamt that up

we're taking advantage of
we're breaking the back of love
breaking the back of love

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Liverpool indie-rock band Echo & The Bunnymen were formed in 1978 by singer Ian McCulloch, guitarist Will Sergeant and bass player Les Pattinson. Joined by drummer Pete de Freitas, they released their debut album Crocodiles in 1980 and Heaven Up Here in 1981. Both albums were critically acclaimed and saw the band slowly build a reputation towards mainstream popularity. In 1983 they achieved a Top Ten hit in the UK, with "The Cutter", taken from third album Porcupine. Porcupine hit No.2 in the album charts, and was followed by one-off single "Never Stop", and "The Killing Moon", another Top Ten hit. That song has become their signature tune, featuring in films such as Donnie Darko and Grosse Point Blank, and standing out on Echo & The Bunnymen's greatest album, 1984's Ocean Rain.
