Lyrics
|
(VERSE 1)
I WALKED BACK TO MY CAR
WITH THE PAPERS IN MY HAND
I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND
HOW WE EVER CAME TO THIS
OUR LOVE WAS STRONG
WHERE DID WE GO WRONG?
WHAT BROUGHT US TO THIS DAY?
I'LL ASK MYSELF, SOMEHOW,
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO NOW?
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO NOW?
(VERSE 2)
I WALKED INTO THE HALL
FROM THE SILENCE OF YOUR ROOM
YOU LAY THERE HELPLESSLY
I KNEW YOU'D SOON BE GONE
I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A CHILD
YOU ROCKED ME THROUGH THE NIGHT
NOW I'LL LET GO OF YOU
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
(CHORUS 1)
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO, BUT UNDERSTAND
THAT LOVE CAN HEAL THE PAIN
IT'S SUCH A SIMPLE THING
WE FORGET WHAT LOVE CAME FOR
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO
BUT HOLD OUR HAND
AND GUIDE US TO THE LIGHT
IF WE WOULD JUST ALLOW,
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO NOW?
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO NOW?
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
(VERSE 2)
THE ROAD BEFORE US NOW
IS A PATH WE'VE ALWAYS KNOWN
IT LEADS US LOVINGLY
TO A PLACE THAT WE CALL "HOME"
IT IS A JOURNEY OF NO DISTANCE
TO A PLACE WE NEVER LEFT
AND I'LL WALK THAT ROAD WITH YOU
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
(CHORUS 2)
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO
BUT SIMPLY BE
THE PEACE THAT FEEDS OUR SOUL
AND IT WILL MAKE US WHOLE
AS WE OPEN UP OUR HEARTS
WHAT WOULD LOVE DO
BUT HELP US SEE
THAT TRUE SERENITY
LIVES HERE IN ME AND YOU
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WOULD DO
