Lyrics: Does the light of passion still burn bright Only love would know, my imagination Tells me I'm a pent-up fool In the deep end of the pool Is the light of passion burnin' bright Only love would know, only love would know She lives on the other side, you wanna know the reason why She arrives at promises and you believe in what she says Everywhere you go Is the light of passion burnin' bright Everywhere you go, only love would know You think you've been wronged again Oh what a way to treat a friend She belongs to other eyes and surely you must realize She ain't the kind who would soon step aside Pay any dues at the expense of her pride Everywhere she goes, only love would know In the days gone by I came to believe Everything is trust, all the rest is dust Mother nature, mother dear, listen to us over here Are the sounds of laughter ringing true Only love would know, only love would do She lives on another plane away from the drivin' rain She says no, you say yes, and that's how it should be I guess Only love would know May the light of love surround you tonight Everywhere you go, only love would know You think you were wrong until You learned once and for all it's still Once more lesson on the way Or that is what it seemed to say She's not the kind who would soon step down Not the kind you would try to walk around When only a thought would go very well You can tell by the touch Ah but only love would know Passion burnin' bright Tears of passion late at night Is the light of passion burning bright Everywhere you go, only love would know |
