Love's Reign Of Terror Lyrics

Love's reign of terror is over

With only a wave and a kiss

After so many years of resistance

It finally came down to this

It took us too long to realise

The evils performed in its name

Love's reign of terror is over

That monster is finally slain

Love's reign of terror is over

Common sense finally won

St. Valentine's army defeated

With not even one shot from a gun

Cupid's infinite archers

Finally gave up the fight

Love's reign of terror is over

Sleep like a baby tonight

This one's for you, there's been a crash

There's been a coup, there's been a fatal error

It's the end of love's reign of terror

It wasn't all kisses and candy

The truth will emerge at the trials

Where did you think were the heartless

When everyone walked down the aisle?

Their methods were charmingly touching

So, being polite, we agreed

It all seemed so quaint and so harmless

We didn't expect they'd succeed

The torture was so sentimental

Tasteful, romantic and sweet

Done in the darkest of dungeons

Performed by the pert and petite

They kissed me and whispered 'I love you'

As they stripped all the gums from my teeth

Goodbye to the heart's reign of terror

Revenge will soon follow relief

This one's for you, there's been a crash

There's been a coup, there's been a fatal error

It's the end of love's reign of terror

Beware all you useless romantics

Who flourished throughout this regime

Profiteers also, be watchful

Who sold them impractical dreams

It's so many years since they shouted

'Death to the Tyrant, The Head!'

'The old heart is dead' shout the headlines

'Long live the new heart instead'

This one's for you, there's been a crash

There's been a coup, there's been a fatal error

It's the end of love's reign of terror

This one's for you, you disappear

Right on cue

Goodbye to you, dear Sarah

It's the end of love's reign of terror
