I loved you for a long, long time I know this love is real It don't matter, how it all went wrong That don't change the way I feel And I can't believe that time is Gonna heal this wound that I'm speaking of There ain't no cure There ain't no cure There ain't no cure for love I'm aching for you baby I can't pretend I'm not I need to see you naked In your body and your thought I've got you like a habit And I'll never get enough There ain't no cure There ain't no cure There ain't no cure for love There ain't no cure for love There ain't no cure for love All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky The holy books are open wide The doctors working day and night But they'll never ever find that cure for love There ain't no drink no drug (Ah tell them, angels) There's nothing pure enough to be a cure for love I see you in the subway and I see you on the bus I see you lying down with me, I see you waking up I see your hand, I see your hair Your bracelets and your brush And I call to you, I call to you But I don't call soft enough There ain't no cure There ain't no cure There ain't no cure for love I walked into this empty church I had no place else to go When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul I don't need to be forgiven for loving you so much It's written in the scriptures It's written there in blood I even heard the angels declare it from above There ain't no cure, There ain't no cure, There ain't no cure for love There ain't no cure for love There ain't no cure for love All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky The holy books are open wide The doctors working day and night But they'll never ever find that cure (cure for love) That cure for love (No cure for love) (There ain't no cure for love) (No cure for love, there ain't no cure for love)

You got your long tan legs on my gray leather seat And the smile on your face makes my heart start to beat The best damn thing this truck's ever seen And you're the only reason it ever gets clean Oh my my, oh my Lord How'd I get you in this Ford? Cruisin' down 441 I'm on fire, and you're so fun Nowhere to go, nowhere to be You're like a love disease, making me wish for more But girl, I know there ain't no cure Had a dream last night that you weren't around And when I awoke, I was real damn down But then you climbed up in this truck And I can't tell you where I found this luck Oh my my, oh my Lord How'd I get you in this Ford? Cruisin' down 441 I'm on fire, and you're so fun Nowhere to go, nowhere to be You're like a love disease, making me wish for more But girl, I know there ain't no cure Just the other day, I went to the store And it made my pocket pretty damn sore This whole bid's gonna change my life I'm on one knee, gonna make you my wife Oh my my, oh my Lord How'd I get you in this Ford? Cruisin' down 441 I'm on fire, and you're so fun Nowhere to go, nowhere to be You're like a love disease, making me wish for more But girl, I know there ain't no cure Nowhere to go, nowhere to be You're like a love disease, making me wish for more But girl, I know there ain't no cure

A little bit of hope gone too far A little bit of pain leaves a scar You got yours, I've got yours A little bit of dream disappears When a word like love 'causes so much fear I've got mine, you've got mine The lines all drawn The time is now Love will show us how Tonight we'll cross that great divide No turning back Tonight we'll let our hearts decide Our souls will follow With a little bit of luck, we'll take it step by step If we never give it up, we'll we might get there yet Tonight, we'll let our hearts decide We'll cross that great divide When we lose our trust, can we keep our faith? When it's up to us just to dream this way Well, I've got mine, you've got mine Now the lines all drawn The time is now Love will show us how Tonight we'll cross that great divide No turning back Tonight we'll let our hearts decide Our souls will follow With a little bit of luck, we'll take it step by step If we never give it up, well, we might get there yet Tonight, we'll let our hearts decide We'll cross that great divide I know I've been there Tonight we'll cross that great divide No turning back Tonight we'll let our hearts decide And our souls will follow With a little bit of luck, take it step by step If we never give it up, well, we might get there yet Tonight we'll let our hearts decide If we'll cross that great divide (Tonight we'll cross that great divide) with a little bit of luck, baby (Tonight) tonight (we'll cross that great divide) Let our hearts decide to know With a little bit of luck (tonight we'll cross that great divide) I tell you, I know (tonight, we'll cross that great divide) cross the way Tonight (tonight we'll cross that great divide) (Tonight we'll cross that great divide)

Is it getting better Or do you feel the same? Will it make it easier on you now You got someone to blame You say... One love One life When it's one need In the night One love We get to share it Leaves you baby if you Don't care for it One... Did I disappoint you Or leave a bad taste in your mouth? You act like you never had love And you want me to go without Well it's... Too late Tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one, but we're not the same We get to Carry each other Carry each other One... Have you come here for forgiveness? Have you come to raise the dead? Yet you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head Did I ask too much More than a lot? You gave me nothing Now it's all I got We're one But we're not the same We got to Hurt each other Then we do it again You say Love is a temple Love a higher law Love is a temple Love the higher law You ask me to enter But then you make me crawl And I can't be holding on To what you got When all you got is hurt One love One blood One life You got to do what you should One life With each other Sisters And brothers One life But we're not the same We get to Carry each other Carry each other One One

Fat man lookin' in a blade of steel Thin man lookin' at his last meal Hollow man lookin' at a cottonfield For dignity Wise man lookin' at a blade of grass Young man lookin' in the shadows that pass Poor man lookin' through painted glass For dignity Somebody got murdered on New Year's Eve Someone said dignity was the first to leave I went into the city, I went into the town Went to the land of the midnight sun Searchin' high, searchin' low Searchin' everywhere I know Askin' the cops wherever I go Have you seen dignity? Blind man breakin' out of a trance Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance Hopin' to find one circumstance Of dignity I went to the wedding of Mary-Lou She said, "I don't want nobody see me talkin' to you" Said she could be killed, if she told me what she knew About dignity Footprints runnin' cross the silver sand Steps fallin' down into tattoo land I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light In the bordertowns of despair So many roads, so much at stake Too many dead ends, I'm at the edge of the lake Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take To find dignity
