When You Love Someone
[Intro]
When you love someone
When you love someone
[Verse 1]
When you love someone—it's an arrow in the heart
When you love someone—it's a shot in the dark
When you love someone—it's a needle in the vein
When you love someone—like a moth to the flame
When you love someone—'cause it's love that makes a hero
When you love someone
When you love someone
[Verse 2]
When you love someone—it's a prayer for the damned
When you love someone—it's another helping hand
When you love someone—it's a crack inside the wall
When you love someone—and you don't have far to fall
When you love someone—it'll make a fool believe
When you love someone
[Chorus]
When you love someone
We will come down from the mountains
When you love someone
We will rise up from the valley, yeah
When you love someone
We will come from every corner
When you love someone
We will make this whole world over
Just you wait and see
[Verse 3]
When you love someone—it's love that makes you brave
When you love someone—from the cradle to the grave
When you love someone—there's a song in every word
When you love someone—and you are more than you deserve
When you love someone—there is magic in your hands
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
[Verse 4]
When you love someone
When you love someone
When you love someone
When you love someone
When you love someone
When you love someone
[Chorus]
When you love someone
We will come down from the mountains
When you love someone
We will rise up from the valley, yeah
When you love someone
We will come from every corner
When you love someone
We will make this whole world over
Just you wait and see
[Verse 5]
When you love someone—it is an arrow in the heart
When you love someone—it's like a shot in the dark
When you love someone—it's a needle in the vein
When you love someone—you're a moth to the flame
When you love someone—there is magic in your hands
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
[Outro]
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
When you love someone
When you love someone—there is peace upon the land
