and if you take your love
away from me
I'm only gonna want it back
I'll probably pretend
I didn't see
but knowing me I'll want you back
again and again 
till the world has lost its meaning

and love is all that stays
only love remains

if you should ever feel
that something's wrong
I'm gonna want to put it right
to bring a happy ending
to our song
I'll carry on believing in a love
if your love
was to trickle through my fingers

what would it leave me with
only love remains

old enough and strong enough
to stretch across the world
taking the sand inside an oyster
changing it into a pearl
making another magic transformation
fing the right boy for the right girl

when all our friends have gone
and we're alone
there's nothing left to shout about
together we'll explore
the great unknown
I'd say we won't be going out tonight
let tonight
be the one that we remember

when love is all that stays
only love remains
