|
It knocked me down, it dragged me out, it left me there for dead. |
|
It took all the freedom I wanted and gave me something else instead. |
|
It blew my mind, it bled me dry, it hit me like a long goodbye, |
|
And nobody here knows better than I that it's a good thing. |
|
Love is a good thing. |
|
It'll fall like rain on your parade, |
|
Laugh at the plans that you tried to make, |
|
It'll wear you down till your heart just breaks |
|
And it's a good thing. |
|
Love is a good thing. |
|
It'll wake you up in the middle of the night, it'll take just a little too much. |
|
It'll burn you like a cinder till you're tender to the touch. |
|
It'll chase you down, and swallow you whole, it'll make your blood run hot and cold. |
|
Like a thief in the night it'll steal your soul, and that's a good thing. |
|
Love is a good thing. |
|
It'll follow you down to the ruin of your great divide, |
|
Open the wounds that you tried to hide. |
|
And there in the rubble of the heart that died |
|
You'll find a good thing. |
|
Cause love is a good thing. |
|
Oh love is a good thing. |
|
Ooo, take cover, |
|
Ooo, the end is near. |
|
Ooo, take cover, |
|
But do not fear, |
|
Do not fear. |
|
Cause it'll break your will, it'll change your mind, |
|
Loose all the chains of the ties that bind. |
|
If you're lucky you'll never make it out alive, and that's a good thing. |
|
Love is a good thing. |
|
It can hurt like a blast from a hand grenade |
|
When all that used to matter is blown away. |
|
There in the middle of the mess it made you'll find a good thing. |
|
Yes, it's worth every penny of the price you pay. It's a good thing. |
|
Love is a good thing --(Ooo, take cover,) |
|
Love is a good thing --(Ooo, the end is near,) |
|
Oh love is a good thing --(Ooo, take cover.) |
|
Do not fear. |
