That they've frightened all their friends away.

They've alienated everyone.
And what started off as all cuddles and kisses
Has finally become

A labor of love, labor of love.
The torment, the worry and woe,
Love's full of fears, bruises and tears,
That's the way that a true love grows.
It's a labor of love, labor of love.
It's a struggle, without a doubt,
But if they keep on trying, screaming and crying,
