Long Live Love lyrics

(Keith)

Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the Devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me

Saw your light from the street
As I passed by the other day
I was scared, my knees were weak
Forgot what I had come to say

Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the Devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me

(Macauley/Potger)

Tossing and turning last night I was burning
For you my love
I couldn't sleep or face one more night on my own
Somehow the wind and the rain seem to call out my name
In the still of night
The sound that I heard was your voice
And the words, oh I knew

You called me angel eyes
Child of the morning
You and I will soon be together
My darling

(Hawkshaw/Gosling)

I was born in the country, I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow when the day's work was done
Down in the valley shone the bright neon signs
The call of the city life kept going through my mind
Oh yeah, the days of my childhood would soon be left behind

It was a Saturday morning when the snow lay on the ground

(Branson/Mindel)

There's only one way to go when you're up too high
You've gotta come down; you've gotta come down
And there's only one way of saying the word goodbye
You've gotta come down; you've gotta come down

You've gotta be sure you're not throwing your life away
You know I can say you'll regret it someday

But someday, many tears and far away

(B. Wilson/T. Asher)

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
There'd be no need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I feel about you

If you should ever leave me
My life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I feel about you

(Saker/Leathwood/Sulsh)

Loving you, loving you ain't easy
But I don't mind if I can stay here by your side

Every lonely road you walk along
I'll be there too
Just say the word love
And I would follow you
Every lonely road you walk along
I'd walk along with you
If only you would show me that you care

Loving you, loving you ain't easy

(Farrar/Robinson)

I've seen so many smiling faces today
But just what lies behind them I can't see
I've lived my life in many places, you see
Now I don't know just where I wanna be

'Cause home ain't home anymore, no more
My heart ain't here anymore, no more

The years have opened up a canyon it seems
A canyon deep and wide that I can't cross

(Greenaway/Stephens)

Yesterday it was all over
Thought I'd lost the love of my life
He took a one-way ticket on an east-bound train
Told me he was never coming back again
But I just got a telegram that read

Hey
Have love - will travel
That's all it had to say
Have love - will travel
He's on his way
I'm happy now
Have love - will travel
Four little words that mean so much

(Peter Allen/Jeff Barry)

Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know

I love you
I honestly love you

You don't have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
This is pure and simple
And you should realize

(Findon/Wilkins)

And there'll be hands, hands across the sea
Touching everybody, joining you and me

If we could build a new horizon
I'd like to see some changes made
When nations hear the voice of reason
And all the world live unafraid

And there'll be hands, hands across the sea
People joined as one, innocent and free
And we'll have love, love and sympathy

(Morrison)

The river's too wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
'Cause the river's too wide

A gentle stream once flowed between us
But love could cross it easily
Till stormy skies brought bitter teardrops
And made that stream a raging river
Come between you and me

The river's too wide now for crossing

(Macauley/Potger)

Tossing and turning last night I was burning
For you my love
I couldn't sleep or face one more night on my own
Somehow the wind and the rain seem to call out my name

And the words, oh I knew
