Lyrics

Is this just another day,... this god forgotten place?
First comes love and then comes pain. let the games begin,..
Questions rise and answers fall,... insurmountable

Love boat captain
Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear,... here
It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough
All you need is love

Is this just another phase of earthquakes making waves?
Trying to shake the cancer off us stupid human beings,..
Once you hold the hand of love,.. it's all surmountable

Hold me, and make it the truth,..
That when all is lost there'll be you,..
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word I still believe
And it's love

It's an art to live with pain,... mix the light into grey,.
Lost 9 friends we'll never know,.. 2 years ago today
And if our lives became too long, would it add to our regret?

And the young, they can lose hope cause they can't see beyond today,..
The wisdom that the old can't give away
Hey,... constant recoil..
Sometimes life don't leave you alone

Hold me, and make it the truth,..
That when all is lost there will be you
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word that I still believe and it's
Love,... love. love. love. love

Love boat captain
Take the reigns,.. steer us towards the clear
I know it's already been sung,... can't be said enough
Love is all you need,.. all you need is love,.
Love,.. love,..
