Lyrics:

love
I get so lost sometimes
days pass
and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

(Chorus:)
and all my instincts
they return
and the grand facade
so soon will burn
without a voice
without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light, the heat
(your eyes)
I am complete
(your eyes)
I see the doorway
(your eyes)
of a thousand churches
the resolution
of all the fruitless searches
oh, I feel the light and the heat
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes

love
I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted
and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired
working so hard
for our survival
I look to the time with you
to keep me awake and alive

(Chorus)
