Lyrics

[Verse 1]

And I don't want to know 'bout evil

Only wanna know 'bout love

I don't want to know 'bout evil

I only wanna know about love

[Verse 2]

Sometimes it get so hard to listen

Hard for me to use my eyes

And all around the cold is glistenin'

Making sure it keeps me down to size

[Verse 3]

And I don't want to know 'bout evil

Only wanna know about love

I don't want to know one thing about evil

All I wanna know 'bout love

[Verse 4]

I'm waiting for the plains to tumble

Waiting for the towns to fall

I'm waiting for the cities to crumble

Wait until I see you grow

[Verse 5]

Yes, it's gettin' hard to listen

Hard for us to use our eyes

'Cause all around the gold is glistenin'

Making sure it keeps us hypnotized

[Verse 6]

And I don't want to know 'bout evil

I only wanna know about love

I don't want to know 'bout evil

Only wanna know 'bout love

[Verse 7]

I don't want to know 'bout evil

Only wanna know 'bout love

I don't want to know about evil

Only wanna know 'bout love

[Verse 8]

I don't want to know 'bout evil

I only wanna know about love

And I don't want to know 'bout evil

Only wanna know about love
