You say that you cant take it anymore
Someone hurt you and so you close the door
Put the lock on your heart and hide the key
Gonna build yourself a wall of stone
Gonna live there inside it all alone
And you say loves the last thing that you need.
But every drop of rain that falls
Makes a flower grow
Dont give up now, dont give up now
Baby, dont you know.
Only love - can leave you twisted inside
Only love - can make you glad youre alive
Only love (hey hey hey) can mend a heart or break it
Only love - can make the tears tumble down
Only love - can turn your whole world around
Only love (hey hey hey) only love, hey hey hey.
So you sacrifice your trusting soul
So you can maintain complete control
When youre cold as ice you cant get burned
Theres a chance youll break each time you fall
But when you lose your faith, you lose it all
And its gonna get lonely in your world.
But every drop of rain that falls
