They say it's a river
that circles the Earth
A be am of light shin i ng
to the edge
of the u ni verse
It con qu ers all
it chan g es eve ry thi ng
They s ay it's a bles sing
they s ay it's a gift
They s ay it's a mi ra cle
and I be lieve that i t is
It con qu ers all
but it's a mys te r y
Love breaks yo ur heart
Love takes n o less
than e ve ry thing
Love makes it hard
And it fades a wa y
so ea si ly
In this world we cre a ted
in this pla ce that we live
In the bli nk
of an eye, babe
the dark ness sl ip s in
That lights the world
That lights the lo vers
for e ter ni ty
Love breaks th e chain
Love ach es for
eve ry one of us
Love takes th e tears
and the pa in
And turns it in t o
the beau ty that re mains
Look at this pl a ce
it was pa ra dise
But now it's dy ing
I'll pray for love
I'll take my chan ces
that it's not too la te
* * * * Love breaks yo ur heart

Love ach es for

and the p a i n
And it turns it in to
the beau ty that re mains
