[Verse 1]
You cannot ask for love
It may come
If you wait year after year after year
Love is the tide in, rises and falls
Strong like the iceberg, gone with the thorn
Love is the rain that falls in the night
Hard in December, dry in July

[Chorus]
But I have you now
By the throw by the pound
But I have you now
Gonna drink you down

[Verse 2]
What do you want from love, what do you need?
Is it something sweet?
To make you feel complete
Love like a road can strangle or hold
Love like the wind won't do what it's told
Love like the fire that burns on the shore
Those flames will mourn you
They can't be strolled

[Chorus] x2
