The New Order song "Thieves like Us" breaks it down so well:
'Oh, it's called love
And it belongs to us
Oh, it dies so quickly
It grows so slowly
But when it dies, it dies for good
It's called love'
+++
This is probably one of the saddest things that can happen to two people in love. It's hard to explain with words why it happens, and Natasha_Khan sings it so well in this live version from Etienne Daho's show "Dahoshow" on December 15th, 2007.

Bat_for_Lashes-What's a Boy to do?
We walked arm in arm
But I didn't feel her touch
A desire I'd first tried to hide,
That tingling inside was gone
And when she asked me:
'do you still love me?'
I had to look away
I didn't want to tell her
That my heart grows colder with each day
When you love someone
But the thrill is gone
And your kisses at night
Are replaced with tears
And when your dreams are on
A train to train wreck town
Then I ask you now, what's a boy to do?
She said she'd take me away
That we'd work things out
And I didn't want to tell her
But it was then I had to say
Over the times we've shared
It's all blackened out
And my bat lightning heart
Wants to fly away
When you love someone
But the thrill is gone
And your kisses at night
Are replaced with tears
And when your dreams are on
A train to train wreck town
Then I ask you now, what's a boy to do?
What's a boy to do? x3
