Lyrics

[Intro]
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
[Verse 1]
Well, when it's dark, it's hard
Will you seek to solve yourself?
Me, I take the darkest corner
Whistling to myself
[PreChorus]
All is as it was and then you came in
Love's a simple thing to make
You should wanna
When it's dark, it's hard
[Chorus]
To live in love
Is to be uncertain
To live in love
Is to bear the burden
Of so many
Who yearn to know
My life matters
Yearn to know
[Chorus]
To live in love
Is to be uncertain
To live in love
Is to bear the burden
Of so many
Who yearn to know
My life matters
Yearn to know
[Bridge]
Love takes off the mask
That we fear we can't live without
Love takes off the mask
That we fear we can't live without
Love takes off the mask
That we fear we can't live without
Love takes off the mask
That we fear we can't live without
And we know we can't live within
[Bridge]
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
Love take over me
Love take over me
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do
[Outro]
"Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does
Love is battle, love is a war
Love is growing up, love takes off the mask that we fear we cannot live without
And know we cannot live within"
