Limits To Love Lyrics - Singles - Til Tuesday

Known her ever since she was a kid 

She was the kind of girl who repeats her mistakes 

Her parents never minded what she did 

She was a fallen angel with dirt on her face 

Past a certain point she stayed behind 

The two of us could never read her mind 

The million ways she had of killing time 

So we just gave up 

Yeah, we just gave up 

'Cause sometimes, you know 

There's limits to love 

We'd get impatient with her now and them 

Oh, she'd smile and say, "Now you're not being nice." 

I guess her definition of a friend 

Was someone long on love and short on advice 

We gave her money but the money's bad 

She took the dollars and just tore them in half 

We got so angry, we just had to laugh 

But we still gave up 

Yeah, we still gave up 

'Cause sometimes, you know 

There's limits to love 

She'll get in trouble but she will scrape through 

She's the kind of girl who can always find help 

I'd say she's stupid, but it'd be untrue 

Oh, you've got to be smart if you're fooling yourself 

We tried to love her, but our love unwound 

(So our love was weak) 

We talked about her when she wasn't around 

(So our talk was cheap) 

And still we felt that we were letting her down 

'Cause we just gave up 

Yeah, we just gave up 

'Cause sometimes, you know 

There's limits to love 

Sometimes, you know 

There's limits to love 

Oh, sometimes, you know 

There's limits to love
