Love
Love, what have you done to me?
Oh love why can’t I set you free?
Love where are you now?
I know there is a chance I can make it,
But if I reach out my hand I can take it
Love, I dream about you
I know when I awake you won’t kiss me at my surprise of seeing you at my side,
But if I scream out your name, it because I no longer want to hide.
So love what do you say?
We kick up our heals and throw it all away, and play
Love what have you done to me?
Oh love, why can’t I set you free?
You took my heart, and you tore it apart.
But, oh love
I need you right now
I know there is a fire burning inside of you,
But if I try to tell you, you just won’t take the clue.
Love I can’t forget about you
I know when I awake you won’t be there to tell me everything is going to be alright,
But if I reach for you and you are standing far away, it is because the darkness
shines too bright.
So love what do you say?
We kick up our heals and throw it all away, and play
Love what have you done to me?
Oh love, why can’t I set you free?
You took my heart, and you tore it apart.
But oh love, what do I do?
I know there is no way it will happen in my mind,
But if my heart sees a hope it waits for what it will find
Love, I’ve walked out on you
I know when I keep dragging on; it only adds more pain to my defeat,
But if I turn back to find you looking down at me, it is because I hate to be beat.
So love what do you say?
We kick up our heals and throw it all away, and play
Love what have you done to me?
Oh love, why can’t I set you free?
You took my heart, and you tore it apart.
But oh love, I’ll do fine with out you
Yes love, in all actuality, it was only a bruise
