This Is Love* (Album Version) 歌词
Songs Title:this is love
If you ever need to hear a voice in the middle of the night
When it seems so black outside that you cant remember light
Ever shone on you or the ones you love in this or another lifetime
And the voice you need to hear is the true and the trusted kind
With a soft, familiar rhythm in these swirling,
unsure times when the waves are lapping in and youre not sure you can swim
Well heres the lifeline
If you ever need to feel a hand take up your own
When you least expect but want it more than youve ever known
Baby heres that hand and baby heres my voice thats calling,
this is love, all it ever was and will be
This is love
And if you ever need some proof that time can heal your wounds
Just step inside my heart and walk around these rooms
Where the shadows used to be,
you can feel as well as see how peace con hover
Now times been here to fix whats broken with its power
The love that smashed us both to bits spent its last few hours
Calling out your name, I thought this is the kind of pain
From which we dont recover
But Im standing here now with my heart held out to you
You wouldve thought a miracle was all that got us through
Well baby all I know, all I know is Im still standing
And this is love all it ever was and will be
This is love
And I see you still and theres this catch in my throat and
I just swallow hard till it leaves me
Theres nothing in this world that can change what we know
Still I know I am here if you ever need me
And this is love
And if you ever think of me let it be around twilight
When the world has settled down and the last round of sunlight
Is waning in the sky, as you sit and watch the night descending
A car will pass out front with lovers at the wheel
A dog will bark back out and childrens voices peal
Over and under the air, youve been there lost in the remembering
And if you ever wish for things that are only in the past
Just remember that the wrong things arent supposed to last
Babe its over and done and the rest is gonna come when you let it
And this is love, all that it ever was and will be
This is love, when you let it, if you let it now
This is love, all it ever was and can be
This is love
