It was back in 1981 I was waiting on a bus You came up to me and you said, hello I think it was a Thursday A few weeks later I moved in with you Into your apartment over on 4th Ave Our first date was a crosstown bus Our second was later that night down at Joey’s Bar A couple of drinks and a jukebox singalong Turns out your favorite songs were the same as mine I was figuring on a one night stand It's lasted for three years St Valentine’s day massacre Seven men were killed Add one more to the list, now baby This love is gonna be the death of me One morning last week I was sipping my coffee Just trying to figure out how I had gotten here I guess I got used to having somebody around You liked waking up with me there This hasn't always been great but it’s certainly never been bad Thinking about it, I guess it's just been really, really good St Valentine's day massacre Seven men were killed Add one more to the list, now baby This love is gonna be the death of me It was back in 1929 Seven men were shot They were mobsters and they were fully armed Confronted and killed without a fight I guess this love is kind of like that slaying I never saw you coming, I just fell into you without a fight St Valentine's day massacre Seven men were killed Add one more to that list, now baby This love is gonna be the death of me This love is gonna be the death of me This love is gonna be, oh you will be The death of me
