Love is no place for the faint of heart
We need all the strength we can find
Sometime when feelings tear you apart
You wonder if you're out of your mind
Still we're going way over our heads
Doing things we could suffer the fall
What seems like a jungle of emotion
Don't give you any cover at all
Take heart when it's getting you down (getting you down)
Love wasn't made in a day, no, oh
(The more that you have, the more you must pay), oh
(Once you gave up, and you break up)
Something you say and you mean it well
Can easily be turned around
Chasing feelings like shapes on the wall
You wonder if you're lost or you're found
And look back on the things we've been through
I will do it again just the same
One thing is sure when love rules are born
I'll never get the end of the day
Take heart when you're losing your way (you're losing your way)
Love wasn't made in a day, oh
(Love takes away), yes, it does
(The more that you have, the more you must pay), oh
(Once you gave up, and you break up)
(The more that you have, the more you must pay)
(Once you gave up, and you break up)
In return (in return), yeah
(The more that you have, the more you must pay), hmm-mm
(The stronger it is, the more you must pay), whoa, yeah, yeah
(What love gives) what you think it's right
(Love takes away) you know you got to search for advice
(The more that you have, the more you must pay), oh-oh-oh
(What love gives), love gives
(Love takes away), it takes away from you
(The stronger it is, the more you must pay), tell me now
(The more that you have, the more you must pay)
