Only Love - Ben Howard

I have sailed a boat or two out on the wild blue Yonder to dreams that rarely come true As far as I can see, from this island of green I can put my trust in just one thing Only love sails straight from the harbor And only love will lead us to the other shore And out of all the flags I've flown One flies high and stands alone Only love Peaceful waters, raging sea It is all the same to me I can close my eyes and still be free When the waves come crashing down And thunder rolls around I can feel my feet on solid ground Only love sails straight from the harbor And only love will lead us to the other shore And out of all the flags I've flown One flies high and stands alone Only love And only love sails straight from the harbor And only love will lead us to the other shore And out of all the flags I've flown One flies high and stands alone Only love Only, only love Only, only love (only, only love) Only love
