Heather Nova, Only Love

I used to think that I knew what we needed.
Just assumed we would always be fine.
Now I don’t think that we lost the feeling
but we let everything build up inside.It’s only love,
but love should make us strong.
It’s only love,
but love has been hurting so long.

What a challenge, honesty.
What a struggle to learn to speak.
Who’d have thought that
pretending was easier?

It’s only love,
but love should make us strong.
It’s only love,
but love has been hurting so long.

And its all a part of me, it tears at my heart.
Only love.
And it’s all an eternity, hoping to learn.
Only love.

There’s a part of you I’m trying to reach;
still a part I don’t know.
Tell me, is devotion a gift or a thief?
Do you wish I’d let go?
