Maybe it's the glance from across the room Or a hint of just the right perfume Suddenly two strangers become friends I don't know how love starts But I sure know how it ends A few angry words you just can't take back Cold bitter tears as a suitcase is packed Next thing you know you're back To being strangers again I don't know how love starts But I sure know how it ends Maybe it's the way she says your name And no one else's touch feels quite the same Suddenly you find you're fallin' in I don't know how love starts But I sure know how it ends A few angry words you just can't take back Cold bitter tears as a suitcase is packed Love comes and goes But don't ask me why or when I don't know how love starts But I sure know how it ends I don't know how love starts But I sure know how it ends
