[Verse 1]
Love is stronger than fear
It's a fire you put out with tears
And it keeps it's own kind of time
Oh, I've known some nights that go on for years

[Verse 2]
Love never runs smooth
It's both the knife and the wound
When it's gone
We want it again
'Cause right to the end
We're willin' fools 'cause

[Chorus]
Nothing's so dark as a moonless night
Nothing's so cold as being empty inside
Love lifts you up, oh and love makes you crawl
Nothing feels worse, feeling nothing at all

[Verse 3]
Love has cut me before
With my own hand on the sword
I have learned what everyone knows
With one tender rose
There's a handful of thorns, but
[Chorus]
Nothing's so dark as a moonless night
Nothing's so cold as being empty inside
Love lifts you up, oh and love makes you crawl
Nothing feels worse, feeling nothing at all

[Bridge]
So I'll light up a candle in the dark of the room
'Til even the shadows are warm
As I hold on to you
(Hold on to you)
You're holding me
'Cause love is the key and the door

[Chorus Out]
Nothing's so dark as a moonless night
Nothing's so cold as being empty inside
Love lifts you up, oh and love makes you crawl
Nothing feels worse than feeling nothing at all
