I fear, my dear
We´ve forgotten the things strangers do
If we could look back
To the terrible thrill that we knew
Am I imagining a world without you?
Must we be shamed into love?

What can I say?
Will you pardon my stupid embrace?
Sometimes I´m desperate
While you´re wiping the smile from your face
Am I surrendering, or am I replaced?
Must we be shamed into love?

Shamed into love
You´re once a fool for having it
Twice a fool for letting it go
Somewhere my love there´s a feeling deep inside of me
That I can´t let go
Oh you´ll never know

But then my darling
I´ve forbidden myself to confess
I´ve looked around now
But I always return to your face
In a world where everything
I once cursed, I bless
It must be you who shamed me into love

Must we be shamed into love?
