Love Is

You come here looking for asylum
From a world that doesn’t understand
I’m not an easy touch
I’ve lived too long and seen too much

And not about to fall at your command
I’ve been a fool for your affection
And part of me would love to take you in
Your innocence has caught me
But a thousand nights have taught me that

Love is… more than a fire
Love goes… beyond desire
Love stands… when everything falls apart
I don’t think that you know what… love is

Love is, love is, God knows, there’s gotta be so much more
Say it again when you know what love Is

I could take advantage of the situation
Say I’ll make your every wish come true
You in your world of dreams
Where money talks and beauty screams

You got the whole scenario in view
And so you look in my direction
You’re bringing me another broken heart
Your ego may be dented, but as much as I am tempted

Love is… more than a fire
Love goes… beyond desire
Love stands… when everything falls apart
I don’t think that you know what… love is

You know there was a time
If you had come my way
I would have welcomed you with open arms
Begging you to stay, but maybe not today, no way
