Lyrics

Only Love

[Verse 1]

You may live alone and close your eyes

Some folks do

You may dream a dream that's twice your size

All night through

But when the morning comes and who's to tell

Your dreams to? Only you

[Chorus]

Only love, love, only, only love will do

Only love, love, only, only love comes true

Nothing else you see, there's nothing else

Only love, only love

[Verse 2]

But when the morning comes and who's to tell

Your dreams to? Only you

I have known a love within my heart

One or two

When one love would end one would start

I never knew

If love should come your way you learn to say

"I love you, I love you"

[Chorus]

Only love, love, only, only love will do

Only love, love, only, only love comes true

Nothing else you see, there's nothing else

Only love, only love
