That's the way love is
Like a wheel on a track
Yeah and I'll never stop looking for you
And it'll never fold back
I could never see how you doubted me
When I'd let go of your hand
In the murmuring of the city in the distance
Of my tires in the rain
Where you gave me the world I was in
Where the touch of the lover ends
Ominous and low
And no holding back, I'll see you through
Or put aside what was true or untrue
In the sunlight and the shadows
And the faces on the avenue
And our sky was unfolding
If you ever need holding
If you ever need holding
If you ever need holding
In the fragments of the songs
That's the way love is
I hear the sound of the world
Where we played and the far too simple beauty
Call my name and I'll be there
If I thought that you wanted me to
In the sound of the waves and the cries
And just come through for you somehow
And the Heavens were rolling
But the moment has passed by me now
And the thing that's lost in everything I do
Sky
Yeah, and I was much younger then
You're the whispering and the sighing
And I must have thought that I would know
Of the seagulls circling the sand
Sky blue and black
Sky blue and black
You're the hidden cost
That's the way love is
And a place I could make a stand
The soul of the friend begins
There's a need to be separate and a need to be one
Call my name and I'll be there
And a struggle neither wins
If you ever need holding
Carried down the wind from some radio
Reflected in each store-front window pane
What you needed me to do
If things were going to end
To have put away my pride
You're the color of the sky
And no holding back, I'll see you through
If I'd known that's what you needed
And I'd have fought the world for you
Of the promises we made
