LYRICS
Well I saw her last night
What a beautiful sight
I couldn’t believe I had a chance
At sweet romance
Then it dawned on me
In my reality
With her power of love
She had over me
Thinking like heaven on your mind
Then you’ll find yourself dreaming in a cloud
Don’t you know that love will lift you up?
Drinking from its everlasting cup
As if you’ve had enough
When love has fallen like the softly driven snow
You’ll hear her calling and away you’ll go
Where love would lead you never really know
There’s no escape from love’s twisted fate
Just make sure she’s risen
Just make sure she’s risen
Love like a guilty bastard
Make like a cake you plaster
Between the lies and laughter
Love is what everyone’s after
Love is a drug that’s faster
Love is the one and only master
Well I’ll make it if I can
I’ll be her superman
Through hoops of fire
With all my imagination
Then I could plainly see
This is my reality
With her power of love
She had over me
You could be a superstar in love
Like a million dollars floating in the air
Don’t you know that love will never stop once it starts?
Coming up love just keeps getting stronger all the time
It’s the secret of show business and the cops
It’s the tops and it fought to be the most
It’s great art
There’s never enough and it’s got to give lots and lots
It comes from heaven above and it’s guaranteed to please
It’s for free and you don’t have to beg
Just open up your heart and believe
And make sure she’s risen
Just make sure she’s risen
Love like a guilty bastard
Make like a cake you plaster
Between the lies and laughter
Love is what everyone’s after
Love is a drug that’s faster
Love is the one and only master
