Sophie B. Hawkins - Only Love (The Ballad of Sleeping Beauty) lyrics

rate me

(Spoken:) Sophie, it's time...

Ahaaa...

You don't know why I'm crazy

I don't know why your blue

You messed with my head

You messed with the dead

Now I'm gonna mess with you

I don't know why your lazy

I'm so in love with you

What's God gonna see

Who's God gonna know

When's God gonna help us through

I can't deny, I can't explain, I can't reply, I can't refrain

I want his hands, I want his chest, I want his feet, I want his sex

I am the child, I am the whore, I am the wild woman at your door

I need to touch, I need to talk, I need to love, I need to give you, you up

What am I fighting for

If I win I lose my life

I need you more and more

To break my will tonight

Only love can set us free

Only love can bear the truth

Only love can bring us peace

Only love can save me and you

Oh Daddy what I've been thinkin'

Only heaven knows

What's Ma gonna see

Who's Ma gonna blame

When's Mama gonna carry you home

I have the urge, I have the mind, I have the touch, I drank the wine

I want the loss, I want the pain, I want to start my life again

I can't define, I can't forget, I can't restrain the feeling of regret

I know the dead, I'm not alone, I made my bed, I wanna let you, you go

What am I frightened for

If I speak I lose my mind

You've broken down the door and there is no place to hide

Only love can set us free

Only love can bear the truth

Only love can bring us peace

Only love can save me and you

Only love can purify

Only love can conquer fear

Only love can testify

Only love can make a miracle of life

Only love can set us free

Only love can bear the truth

Only love can bring us peace

Only love can save me and you

Only love can purify

Only love can conquer fear

Only love can testify

Only love can make a miracle of life
