Lyrics:
My love, I’ve lost my faith in everything Tell me you love me anyway
Tell me you love me
My love, I feel myself unraveling
Tell me you love me anyway
Tell me you love me
My love, I feel the darkness on my back Something inside me like a wave
Tell me you love me
Right now I could use a change of heart
Or a kiss before everything falls apart
Can you tell me this love will last forever?
And as the world turns making such a mess
What’s the point of it when everything’s dispossessed?
Can we carry this love across the desert?
My love, I wish I was a photograph Perfect and lovely in a frame
Tell me you love me
My love, my life could be an epitaph Something to write upon my grave Tell me you love me
Right now I could use a change of plans
When it all falls, what’s the use of open hands? Can you tell me this love will last forever?
And as the world burns breathing in the blight What’s the point of it if morning turns into night? Can we carry this love? It’s now or never
I’m gonna love you. I’m gonna love you every day.
