Will to Love

La la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la

It has often been my dream

To live with one who wasn't there

Like an ocean fish who swam upstream

Through nets, by hooks, and hungry bears

When the water grew less deep

My fins were aching from the strain

I'm swimming in my sleep

I know I can't go back again

Can't go back

I'll never lose

(Got the will to love)

Never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

Never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

It's like something from up above

(Got the will to love)

Never lose the will to love

La la la la, la la la la

I can be like a fire in the night

Always warm and givin' off light

But there comes a time when I shine too bright

Oh, I'm just a fire in the night

And now my fins are in the air

And my belly's scrapin' on the rocks

I still think someone really cares

And I'll keep swimming till I stop

No, no, I'll never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

Got the will to love

(Got the will to love)

I got the will to love

(Got the will to love)

It's like something from up above

(Got the will to love)

I never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

No, no

La la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la

I'm like a singer on the stage

With the golden lights and liquid rage

Down from the mountains to the sea

Cool running love keeps cleansing me

It keeps my gills from getting dry

But it distorts things in my eyes

Sometimes I see what really isn't there

Like my true lover, and I care

But I'll never lose

(Got the will to love)

Got the will to love

(I got the will to love)

Never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

It's like something from up above

(Got the will to love)

Got the will to love

(Got the will to love)

La la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la

Sometimes I ramble on and on

And I repeat myself till all my friends are gone

Get lost in snow and drown in rain

And never feel the same again

I remember the ocean from where I came

Just one of millions, all the same

But somewhere, someone calls my name

I'm a harpoon dodger and I can't, won't be tamed

But I'll never lose the will to love

(Got the will to love)

Never lose the will to love

Never lose it

(Got the will to love)

It's like something from up above

I'm not gonna lose the will to love

La la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la

Baby, if I see boredom in your eye

I'll know my river has run dry

But I won't turn back with that lonely tide

I bought that ticket and I'll take that ride

If we meet along the way

Please sway beside me

Let us sway together, our tails together

And our fins and mind will leave this water

And let our scales shine

In the sun above and the sky below

So all the water and earth will know

It has often been my dream

(La la la la, la la la la)

To live with one who wasn't there
