When I was younger
I kept the world on a string
And held it steady

Ready for what life would bring
Until you said hello


Before I loved you
I didn't know what it was
But I could see the

You and me we could become
No one could tell us no


My father said "Son, someday you'll know"
You're only in love
You won't get away, you won't get away with enough

You're only in love
You won't get away, you won't get away from its touch


When you first called me
I heard the fear in your words
But I was ready

Ready for better or worse
So much we didn't know


I grew up wondering
If love would ever appear
And then you stole me

Finally my darling was here
No one could see what we'd been shown


My mother said "Dear, someday you'll know"
You're only in love
You won't get away, you won't get away with enough

You're only in love
We won't get away, we won't get away


Now that I'm older
I see my father was right
My mother warned me

But I was blinded by light

Lights grow dim and set the stage for two

I guess love never let go like they said so
And we're still holding on to each other


Only in love
We won't get away, we won't get away with enough
We're only in love

We won't get away, we won't get away
