You say that you cant take it anymore

Someone hurt you and so you close the door

Put the lock on your heart and hide the key

Gonna build yourself a wall of stone

Gonna live there inside it all alone

And you say loves the last thing that you need.



But every drop of rain that falls

Makes a flower grow

Dont give up now, dont give up now

Baby, dont you know.



Only love - can leave you twisted inside

Only love - can make you glad youre alive

Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it

Only love - can make the tears tumble down

Only love - can turn your whole world around

Only love (hey hey hey) only love, hey hey hey.



So you sacrifice your trusting soul

So you can maintain complete control

When youre cold as ice you cant get burned

Theres a chance youll break each time you fall

But when you lose your faith, you lose it all

And its gonna get lonely in your world.



But every drop of rain that falls

Makes a flower grow

Dont give up now, dont give up now

Baby, dont you know.



Only love - can leave you twisted inside

Only love - can make you glad youre alive

Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it

Only love - you cant keep running away

Only love - youre gonna need it someday

Only love (hey hey hey) dont you know thats what were here for.



And every drop of rain that falls

Makes a flower grow

Dont give up now, dont give up now

Baby, baby, dont you know.



Only love - can leave you twisted inside

Only love - can make you glad youre alive

Only love (hey hey hey) only love

Only love - can make the tears tumble down

Only love - can turn your whole world around

Only love (only love) hey hey hey

Can mend your heart (only love) or break it.



Only love - can leave you twisted inside

Only love - can make you glad youre alive

Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it

Only love (only love) only love

Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it

(only love) only love.
