Speak
And say the words that no one else will ever say
Love
Love like the world we know is over in a day

[Chorus]
I'm gonna show you love in every language
I'm gonna speak with words that need no form
I'm gonna give you what you never had before

And you're beautiful
And I am weakened by the force of your eyes
So shine bright
To separate the truth from the lies
I'm gonna show you love

[Chorus]

What you never had before
Had before

So tie me to a tree and let the smoke and ash collect
No, I won't regret to let love do what love will let
And you can drown in mixed emotions
And walk across an angry sea
This is the cost of being free

[Chorus: x2]

I'm gonna show you love, love in every language
I'm gonna show you love you never had before
I'm gonna show you love, love in every language
I'm gonna show you love you never had before
I'm gonna show you love
