Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey you
I've seen your face before
And it's you
In the picture which hangs on my bedroom wall
Is it true
All of those things that they say about you?
So tell me, tell me, tell me
What am I supposed to do?
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
[Verse 2]
Well, it's fun
To think that I'm having the time of my life
And it's true
If all this around us Is paradise
Paradise, paradise, paradise
But now
I want to be left here with nothing at all
Even the picture
Has fallen away from the bedroom wall
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
It's a garden's glove, it's not a drug, down this stuff for real love
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of
[Bridge]
In the name of
In the name of
In the name of
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
A weakness and all together, all is well in this context
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
And then it gets said in the name of love
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
[Chorus]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
[Outro]
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
In the name of love, yeah
In the name of love
