Patty Smyth and Don Henley - Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough

I don't want to lose you, I don't want to use you
just to have somebody by my side
And I don't want to hate you,
I don't want to take you, but I don't want to be the one to cry

And that don't really matter to anyone anymore
But like a fool I keep losing my place
and I keep seeing you walk through that door.

(Chorus)

There's a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust.
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.

I could never change you, I don't want to blame you.
Baby, you don't have to take the fall.
Yes, I may have hurt you, but I did not desert you.
Maybe I just want to have it all.

It makes a sound like thunder, it makes me feel like rain.
And like a fool who will never see the truth,
I keep thinking something's gonna change.

(Chorus)

There's a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust.
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.

And there's no way home, when it's late at night and you're all alone.
Are there things that you wanted to say
And do you feel me beside you in your bed,
there beside you, where I used to lay?

And there's a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.
There's a reason why people don't stay who they are.
Baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.

Baby, sometimes, love... just ain't enough.
Oh, Oh, Oh, No.

it's true when you love someone too much or even a little they take you for granted and push away. those people don't know the true value of love anyway.

[Nikkiloves199]

Love is never enough...............Love is what ya got left over after the fire and excitment has gone away.

@Nikkiloves199

Quite deep. Its like continued friendship after one offends the other. As real as it gets.

love this song. for so long I thought the female voice was amanda marshall

[chaja01]

Don Henley would in my books be the best ever singer song writer to exist, and im so happy that i have been lucky enough to see him live several times .I too didnt realise he wrote and sang this song, every few weeks i find another song that he has sung or written,a truly amazing and talented man!

Don H @ great but she really brings it home ,

[Belle0308]

Love Don Henley! I was upfront with my husband when I married him that I loved Don and always would. His voice always makes me feel better.

@Revan2908 Don't be too hard on yourself. Listen to Shania Twain's albums. For years I thought that was Dwight Yoakum singing background. It's not. That's Mutt Lang. I feel like such a douchebag -- deservedly so, I might add.
