Hard to get, impossible to hold Straight as an arrow, like a burning fuse In the long cold dawn by the side of the road A hopeless case, a perfect thing Love is what you want it to be Love is heaven to the lonely Show me what you want me to do 'Cause love is what I've got for you I close my eyes, search the stars Cry for help, wake up cold You're in my system under my skin Raw emotion, please don't go Love is what you want it to be Love is heaven to the lonely Show me what you want me to do 'Cause love is what I've got for you Can't live on promises, won't sleep with lies Don't understand the things you say 'til I read 'em in your eyes Gotta run on instinct, gotta go by feel Gotta trust my senses to know if it's for real Can't live on promises, won't sleep with lies Don't understand the things you say 'til I read 'em in your eyes Gotta run on instinct, gotta go by feel Gotta trust my senses Love is what you want it to be Love is heaven to the lonely Show me what you want me to do 'Cause love is what I've got for you Love is Love is, love is Show me, hey Love is, love is Show me
