10cc - The Things We Do For Love [Lyrics] [1080p]

(1977) 10cc - Deceptive Bends (Japanese Re-Issue 2008) Track 2

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea,
You lay your bets and then you pay the price
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.

Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned and all the lines are down
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.

Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.

Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.

Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.

Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.

A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree to part
When after all it's just a compromise of
The things we do for love, the things we do for love....

I always put Ace, Orleans, and 10CC in the same category. Great soft rock with beautiful harmonies.

They don't make 'em like this no more 😍

Boy teen years were ( are ) rough . This song brings me right back to the angst to the pain, and sometimes elation❤

After Life brought me to this beauty of a song!

Their best song ever followed by "I'm Not in Love". Fabulous memories. Released on Christmas day, 1976 reaching # 5 on April 16, 1977.

This song is a time machine. I'm back in Maine again walking in the snow with nowhere to go, feeling like a part of me is dying...

[markmassie]

Loved the song back then, it had very special meaning. Loving this song now, same special meaning, great songs like this one will always have a special place in this old heart .

Beautiful tune. My half-deaf ears always heard that one line as "Communication is the problem to the answer..." and I kind of like it that way better, but, hey, what do I know?

(For the longest time I heard "You don't know madness from the morning" when the James Gang said, "Up all night, here comes the morning", and I still like my version better there, too. Such as this comes from decades of playing bass guitar next to a kick drum, I guess.)

Always a flashback when I hear this awesome song: My friends and I were going into a wedding reception and the parking lot was covered with slush. My girlfriend hopped up on her boyfriend's (now husband's) back and he toted her in. And the whole time we were belting this song out at the top of our lungs...walking in the rain and the
