|
|
You say that you can't take it anymore
|
Someone hurt you and so you close the door
|
Put the lock on your heart and hide the key
|
Gonna build yourself a wall of stone
|
Gonna live there inside it all alone
|
And you say love's the last thing that you need.
|
|
But every drop of rain that falls
|
Makes a flower grow
|
Don't give up now, don't give up now
|
Baby, don't you know.
|
|
Only love - can leave you twisted inside
|
Only love - can make you glad you're alive
|
Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it
|
Only love - can make the tears tumble down
|
Only love - can turn your whole world around
|
Only love (hey hey hey) only love, hey hey hey.
|
|
So you sacrifice your trusting soul
|
So you can maintain complete control
|
When you're cold as ice you can't get burned
|
There's a chance you'll break each time you fall
|
But when you lose your faith, you lose it all
|
And it's gonna get lonely in your world.
|
|
But every drop of rain that falls
|
Makes a flower grow
|
Don't give up now, don't give up now
|
Baby, don't you know.
|
|
Only love - can leave you twisted inside
|
Only love - can make you glad you're alive
|
Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it
|
Only love - you can't keep running away
|
Only love - you're gonna need it someday
|
Only love (hey hey hey) don't you know that's what we're here for.
|
|
And every drop of rain that falls
|
Makes a flower grow
|
Don't give up now, don't give up now
|
Baby, baby, don't you know.
|
|
Only love - can leave you twisted inside
|
Only love - can make you glad you're alive
|
Only love (hey hey hey) only love
|
Only love - can make the tears tumble down
|
Only love - can turn your whole world around
|
Only love (only love) hey hey hey
|
Can mend your heart (only love) or break it.
|
|
Only love - can leave you twisted inside
|
Only love - can make you glad you're alive
|
Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it
|
Only love (only love) only love
|
Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it
|
(Only love) only love.
