Love, love look what you've done to my heart Oh I should've known from the start That, you'd go and tear it apart Oh and now you've deserted me You never lose, you never fail You always live to tell the tale You take me up, you bring me down Without a touch, without a sound [Chorus] Love, love why do I keep searching high and low? You take me in your arms and let me go Oh how long must it be until you, come run back to me can't you see I got no release from the pain just to see you again You never lose, you never fail You always live to tell the tale You take me up, you bring me down Without a touch, without a sound [Chorus] Love, love, let me go When will love set me free? When will you come back to me? [Chorus] Oh love
