Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How much more are we gonna take?
How many nights do we have to lie awake
How many tears are we gonna cry?
We can wish until the well runs dry
[Verse 2]
But what happens when the sky above
Runs out of every single shooting star?
And what if every good intention's only meant
To go so far?
[Verse 3]
Only love, only love can save us now
Keep the world from burning down, down, down
To the ground, ground, ground
Only love can look inside a human heart
And see us for who we are
Who we are would be enough
[Verse 4]
If only there was only love
Only love
Only love
Only love
[Verse 5]
How many lessons have we really learned?
How many bridges could we cross instead of burn?
Why do we find it hard to forgive?
Are we so blinded that it's easy to forget?
[Verse 6]
Only love, only love can save us now
Keep the world from burning down, down, down
To the ground, ground, ground
Only love can look inside a human heart
And see us for who we are
And who we are would be enough
[Verse 7]
If only there was only love
Only love
Only love
Only love
[Verse 8]
Only love
Only love
Only love
[Verse 9]
So what happens when the sky above
Runs out of every single shooting star?
And what if every good intention's only meant
To go so far?
[Verse 10]
Only love, only love can save us now
Keep the world from burning down, down, down
To the ground, ground, ground
Only love can look inside a human heart
And see us for who we are
And who we are would be enough
[Verse 11]
If only there was only love
Ooh
Ooh
