Intro

D Dmaj7 Gm/D D x2

Verse 1

Thank you for this bitter knowledge
Guardian angels who left me stranded
It was worth it feeling abandoned
Makes one hardened but what has happened to love
D Dmaj7 Gm/D D x2
You got me writing lyrics on postcards
Then in the evening looking at stars
But the brightest of the planets is Mars 
What has happened to love
D Dmaj7 Gm/D D x2
So I will opt for the big white limo
Vanity fairgrounds and rebel angels
You can't be trusted with feathers so hollow
Your heaven's inventions, steel-eyed vampires of love, you see over me

Chorus

I'll never know, what you will show to other eyes   
Go or go ahead, and surprise me
Say you've led the way to a mirage   
Go or go ahead and just try me 
What has happened to love
What has happened to love
What has happened to love  

Verse 2

Nowhere is now here smelling of juniper
Fell off the hay bales, I'm over the rainbows
But oh Medusa, kiss me and crucify
This unholy notion of the mythic power of love

Bridge

Look in her eyes
Look in her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying
Look in her eyes
Look in her eyes
Forget about the ones that are crying
    

Chorus

Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
And surprise me
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
Go or go ahead
And just try me  
What has happened to love  
D Dmaj7 Gm/D D x2
