Only Love

We’ve got food when we get hungry
We’ve got heat to keep us warm
We’ve got our raincoats and umbrellas
To give us shelter from the storm

But it’s only love that saves us
Love that reaches out a hand to raise us
Love that finds us
When we lose our way it’s right behind us
Love that breaks your heart
And it’s love that breaks your fall
It’s only love
And love is all

We’ve had our fill of darkness
Isolation and despair
We’ve got the headlines to remind us
Of just how bitter cold and dark it is out there

But it’s only love that saves us
Love that reaches out a hand to raise us
Love that finds us
When we lose our way it’s right behind us
Love that breaks your heart
And it’s love that breaks your fall
It’s always love
And love is all

What can heal a heart half broken
Run a race that can’t be won
Make a child raised in darkness
Reach for the sun
What makes us do what they told us could
Never be done

It’s only love
Only love
And love is all
