love is the law

Pet Shop Boys

It comes and goes
Ebbs and flows
Love's a profession
Plied beneath the Moon
It waits and watches
Weaves and dodges
Catch it like a cold
No one is immune

And every night
There's a busy trade
Love is the law
That must be obeyed
And every day
The price is paid
Love is the law
And a trick of the trade

From wiser lips
I've heard it said
Love is a profession
As old as time
Watch it and learn it
Study it and earn it
You've a head for business
And a heart for crime

And every night
There's a busy trade
Love is the law
That must be obeyed
And every day
The price is paid
Love is the law
And a trick of the trade

Love is the law
But you can't regulate it
The desire is so strong
And you won't moderate it
That one's a gambler
That one's a thief
Both make it easy
And that's a relief

While every night
There's a busy trade
Love is the law
That must be obeyed
And every day
The price is paid
Love is the law
And a trick of the trade

Love is the law
But you can't regulate it
The desire is so strong
And you won't moderate it
That one's a gambler
That one's a thief
Both make it easy
And that's a relief

Love is the law, love is the law
Love is the law, love is the law
Love is the law, love is the law
Love is the law, love is the law
