Only Love Remains
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And if you take your love away from me
I'm only going to want it back
I'll probably pretend I didn't see
But knowing me, I'll want you back again, and again
Till the word has lost it's meaning
And love is all that stays, only love remains
If you should ever feel that something's wrong
I'm going to want to put it right
To bring a happy ending to our song
I'll carry on believing in a love
If your love was to trickle through my fingers
What would it leave me with?
Only love remains, only love
Old enough and strong enough to stretch across the world
Taking the sand inside an oyster, changing it into a pearl
Making another magic transformation
Find the right boy for the right girl
When all our friends have gone away and we're alone
There's nothing left to show about
Together we'll explore the great unknown
I'd say we won't be going out tonight
Let tonight be the one that we remember
When love is all that stays
Only love remains
When love is all that stays
Only love remains
Only love remains
