Speak Not of Love

Speak not of love
It does not endure
Do not talk of love
Love so often dies
Do not give of love
Love so often lies

Love does not stay
It does not last
And day by day
As time goes past
Love fades away
Love never lasts

Don’t give of love
It always takes
And never returns
Don’t give your love
It always makes
A fool of you

Don’t talk of love
It doesn’t last
It isn’t real
Don’t think of love
Give love a miss
And always be free
