Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They say it's a river
That circles the Earth
A beam of light shining
To the edge of the universe
It conquers all
It changes everything
[Verse 2]
They say it's a blessing
They say it's a gift
They say it's a miracle
And I believe that it is
It conquers all
But it's a mystery
[Verse 3]
Loves breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away
So easily
[Verse 4]
In this world we've created
In this place that we live
In the blink of an eye, babe
The darkness slips in
Love lights the world
Unites the lovers for eternity
[Verse 5]
Love breaks the chains
Love aches for every one of us
Love takes the tears and the pain
And it turns it into the beauty that remains
[Verse 6]
Look at this place
It was paradise
But now it's dying
I'll pray for love
[Verse 7]
I'll take my chances
That it's not too late
[Verse 8]
Loves breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away
So easily
[Verse 9]
Oh, love breaks the chains
Love aches for every one of us
Love takes the tears and the pain
And it turns it into the beauty that remains
