Love Is Lost (David Bowie)It’s the darkest hour, you’re twenty twoThe voice of youth, the hour of dreadThe darkest hour and your voice is newLove is lost, lost is loveYour country's newYour friends are newYour house and even your eyes are newYour maid is new and your accent tooBut your fear is as old as the worldSay goodbye to the thrills of lifeWhere love was good, no love was badWave goodbye to the life without painSay helloYou’re a beautiful girlSay hello to the lunatic menTell them your secretsThey’re like the graveOh, what have you done?Oh, what have you done?Love is lost, lost is loveYou know so much, it’s making you cryYou refuse to talk but you think like madYou’ve cut out your soul and the face of thoughtOh, what have you done?Oh, what have you done?
