Sometimes I lose my faith
Sometimes I lose my way back home
When my communion's done
Sometimes my strengths have been atoned

And hardly ever does it feel
Like the part of it that's real is the part that holds the rope
That's when we live on love
That's when we hold our dreams and hope

I'm not the only one
Who understands the wants and needs
I'm not the only one
Who feels the shaking underneath

As you yourself have often said
We had better well get ready for the worst to come along
That's when we live on love
And do what's best, not right or wrong

So do you take it all to heart?
And does it make it all the harder to apply?
I would have to wonder why

They build you monuments
You get that gold watch in the end
Stick around long enough
And become the world's best friend

And see the look on every face
When we finally take our place at the top you will recall
That's when we live on love
And love's the best part of it all

Sometimes I wake up
With that fire in my brain
Sometimes I wake up
And I cannot feel the flame

When the rest of it goes dark
And I cannot feel the spark to repeat the sad refrain
That's when we live on love
I must remind myself again

That's when we live on love
I must remind myself again
Oh, that's when we live on love
I must remind myself again

That's when we live on love
I must remind myself again
And I'm not the only one
I'm not the only one
