Feel your breath on the back of my neck Back of my neck Feel your heart beating outta your chest Outta your chest Everyone will say It's dangerous to take this path Everyone will tell us Apart that we are more intact Everyone will say that we're crazy And that we won't last Everyone will tell us Alone that we are better off This love ain't made for the faint of heart When it's love, it's tough This love ain't made for the faint of heart Real love is tough Hear them words in the back of my mind Back of my mind Hear them thoughts flooding into our lives Into our lives Anyone could say that We're dangerous to take this chance Anyone could make us sound like We don't really have a plan Anyone could say that It's chemical and it won't last Anyone could make Us seem reckless, tell us we will crash This love (this love) ain't made for the faint of heart (Ffaint of heart) When it's love, it's tough This love (this love) ain't made for the faint of heart (Faint of heart) Real love is tough Who cares what anyone says? (What anyone says about it) Don't let it into your head (Into your head) Who cares what anyone thinks? (What anyone thinks about it) Just let me into your heart (Into your heart) This love ain't made for the faint of heart When it's love, it's tough This love ain't made for the faint of heart Real love is tough This love (this love) ain't made for the faint of heart (Faint of heart) When it's love, it's tough This love (this love) ain't made for the faint of heart (Faint of heart) Real love is tough
