lyrics

Love Still Burns

It's not hard to forget all the good stuff
It's easy to find a road to pain
These tears make you lose your concentration
But wasted water is such a shame

But love still burns within our hearts
And the light comes shining through

I heard the tales of constant trouble
And I've been thinking what's right and wrong
It's hard to walk through all this rubble
So let’s lift our voice into a song

Love still burns within our hearts
And the light comes shining through

It would be tragedy, if they came for me too soon
So I'll wait and see, as I'm flying my balloon
We'll all be there soon

This life is a tricky combination
Of brains and brawn, and birds and bees
We're all part of this constellation
So let’s be the best that we can be

Love still burns within our hearts
And the light comes shining through
