They say it's a river, that circles the earth A beam of light shining to the edge of the universe It conquers all, it changes everything They say it's a blessing, they say it's a gift They say it's a miracle And I believe that it is It conquers all, but it's a mystery Love breaks your heart Love takes no less than everything Love makes it hard And it fades away so easily In this world we've created Where this place that we lived In a blink of an eye the darkness slips in Love lights the world Unites the love that's for eternity Love brakes the chain Love aches for everyone of us Love takes the tears of pain, and it turns it in To the beauty that remains Look at this place It was paradise, but now it's dying I'll brave the love I'll take, my chances that it's not too late Love brakes your heart Love takes no less than everything Love makes it hard And fades away so easily Oh oh oh Love brakes the chain Love aches for everyone of us Love takes the tears and the pain, and turns it in To the beauty that remains
