Love is strong
Richard claptonFalse hopes and compromise, but don't you give in to it,
No rhyme or reason, it's all just a state of mind,
Then when the pressure's on,
You dull your senses and drink yourself blind,
There's only so much you can take,
Before you're drowning in heartache,
I need your love babe, more and more,
Sail me out tot the distant shore
Love is Strong,
You've got your finger on the pressure zone,
Love is Strong,
I'm just a lone wolf on my own.
I can't get high enough,
I want to reach up and touch the stars,
This heart cries out for love,
In darkened corners of empty bars,
What am I doing here?
Waiting here in this desolate station,
No matter what I do,
It's always the same situation,
Baby you take my breath away,
Put the colours in this empty face,
I hang my heart on a very fine line,
But there's a distance in your faraway eyes
Love is Strong,
You've got your finger on the pressure zone,
Love is Strong,
I'm just a lone wolf on my own.
I want to paint pictures,
Watch your body dance in the half light,
I wait in the bleachers,
And watch you dance with some other guy,
These days are tough enough,
Don't have the strength to live without love,
Sometimes I feel I don't care anymore,
Sail me out to the distant shore.
Love is Strong,
You've got your finger on the pressure zone,
Love is Strong,
I'm just a lone wolf on my own.
