(Dm, C, Bb x 4 – intro)

(Dm)       C            Bb
I used to think that I knew what we needed 
(Dm)      C              Bb
I just assumed we would always be fine 
(Dm)   C               Bb
Now I don't think that we lost the feeling, 
       Dm     C          Bb
But we...let everything build up inside 

           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)        C     Bb
Should make us strong 
           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)     C              F    C
Has been...hurting so long

(Dm, C, Bb)

(Dm)      C     Bb
What a challenge...honesty 
(Dm)      C         Bb
What a struggle to learn to speak 
(Dm)          C             Bb
Who’d have thought that pretending was easier? 

(Dm, C, Bb)

           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)         C   Bb
Should make us strong 
           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)     C            F      C
Has been...hurting so...long 

         Dm
And it's all a part of me 
  C
Tearin’ my heart 
     F       C
Only...love 
         Dm
And it's all an eternity 
 C
Hoping to learn 
     F        C 
Only...love 


(Dm) C Bb
Love...
   Dm C Bb
Ooh...

(Dm)       C           Bb
There's a part of you I'm trying to reach 
(Dm)     C            Bb
Still a part I don't know. Tell me, 
(Dm)  C        Bb
Is devotion a gift or a thief? 
(Dm)    C           Bb
Do you wish I'd let go? 

           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)         C   Bb
Should make us strong 
           Dm  C      Bb
It's only love...but love 
(Dm)     C            F      C
Has been...hurting so...long 

         Dm
And it's all a part of me 
  C
Tearin’ my heart 
     F       C
Only...love 
         Dm
And it's all an eternity 
 C
Hoping to learn 

     F      C        Dm  
Only...love... only love, oh,
(C)    F    C
Only love
Dm            C    
Only love, oh...only

(F)        C           Dm               C
