So you're back on top again
Proving everybody wrong
But I recall the days
You didn't feel so strong
When love struck you down
You thought that you were bound to die
From all the pain inside
When love struck you down

When they were handing out the brains
You were at the head of the queue
But once she got inside your heart
They were no use to you
When love struck you down
No one else was fooled
Fear and madness ruled
When love struck you down

You weren't there
When she was everywhere
Her face, her name
But no matter what you said
She never felt the same

When love struck you down
Oh how hard you prayed
But God didn't come to your aid
When love struck you down
When love struck you down
You felt like you were bound to die
From all the pain inside
When love struck you down

When love struck you down
No one else was fooled
Fear and madness ruled
When love struck you down
