Please Please Devo

Love comes in spurts
And love is all around us
Love is what it does

Sometimes it hurts
Does that strike you rather strangely?
Does it ever, love?

Please, please, please
No need to be so cruel
Please, please, please
Don't treat me like a fool

Love comes in spurts
Sometimes it gets to be too much
To rise above

Please, please, please
No need to be so cruel
Please, please, please
Don't treat me like a fool

If you love me you would leave me
Leave me time to be alone
Please believe me, that would leave me time to love you
Does that strike you funny, love?
