It's the footsteps on the ocean
It's the stories in the sky
It's the moonlight in the corners of my heart
It's the mystery of emotion
That no matter how we try
Its love that brings together and its love that tears apart
It's the madness and the mercy we all need
Love is wild and we can't tame it
Love's a child but we can't name it
Love can be a stranger or a friend
Love is kind and love is tender
Love can be a cruel pretender
But it's the only thing that matters in the end
It's the rolling of the thunder
It's the strings on my guitar
It's the music of the sun and moon and stars
Love can be outrageous
Deadly and contagious
It shapes and it defines just who we are
It's love that chains us down and sets us free
Love is wild and we can't tame it
Love's a child but we can't name it
Love can be a stranger or a friend
Love is kind and love is tender
Love can be a cruel pretender
But it's the only thing that matters in the end
It's the danger in the darkness
It's the damage and the dreams
It's the one thing that we all come looking for
Love is wild and we can't tame it
It's a child but we can't name it
Love can be a stranger or a friend
Love is kind and love is tender
Love can be a cruel pretender
It gets the better of us time and time again
Love is wild and we can't tame it
It's a child but we can't name it
Love can be a stranger or a friend
Love is kind and love is tender
Love can be a cruel pretender
It gets the better of us time and time again
Love can lock us up and free us
Love is in the name of Jesus
It is what we'd give our lives up to defend
Cos' it's the only thing that matters in the end
