I've seen that recipe

Lawmen and royalty

And nothing on earth can take that taste

And make it something sweet

I saw the news today

A broken everything with years to pay

And nobody else can save us now

And that's alright by me

'Cos I say

Chorus:

We make love in the face of it all

Feel the freedom and the purity

And what we need is not security

Something more than a law

We walk at night in a blind wind

Through the streets where the rich ones lived

And what we want's beyond the will to win

Something more than a law

I feel the rain on me

I'm soaked in memory

And never will I betray that love

'Cos that's not love by me

I know prosperity

But he could never be a part of me

The snow and the stone

Feeling never at home

Well she's my poetry

'Cos I say

Chorus

And when we're lonely

It's more than lonely

So we turn around to say something bigger than us

But then who do you blame when your love is gone?
