Only a lover knows
The lengths we are willing to go
Together's a different kind of being alone
Where anywhere can feel like home
And the stars hang up above
Looking down on what we have become
It doesn't matter what course you run
If you do it in the name of love
Love, love, love
Only a lover shows
The whole, the bare, the self, the un-shown
Whatever's on our minds the other knows
The comfort in our hearts that we call home
And the stars hang up above
Looking down on what we have become
It doesn't matter what course you run
If you do it in the name of love
Love, love, love
The stars hang up above
Looking down on what we have become
It doesn't matter what course you run
If you do it in the name of love
The stars hang up above
Looking down on what you've become
It doesn't matter what course you run
As long as you do it in the name of love
So keep on doing it in the name of love
Keep on going in the name of love
And we'll look back on how far we've come
And say we did it in the name of love
Love, love
In the name of love
Love, love
Love, love, love
