Only Love Would Know Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot

Only Love Would Know Lyrics

    Does the light of passion still burn bright
    Only love would know, my imagination
    Tells me i'm a pent-up fool
    In the deep end of the pool
    Is the light of passion burnin' bright
    Only love would know, only love would know
    She lives on the other side, you wanna know the reason why
    She arrives at promises and you believe in what she says
    Everywhere you go

    Is the light of passion burnin' bright
    Everywhere you go, only love would know
    You think you've been wronged again
    Oh what a way to treat a friend
    She belongs to other eyes and surely you must realize
    She ain't the kind who would soon step aside
    Pay any dues at the expense of her pride
    Everywhere she goes, only love would know

    In the days gone by i came to believe
    Everything is trust, all the rest is dust
    Mother nature, mother dear, listen to us over here
    Are the sounds of laughter ringing true
    Only love would know, only love would do
    She lives on another plane away from the drivin' rain
    She says no, you say yes, and that's how it should be i guess
    Only love would know

    May the light of love surround you tonight
    Everywhere you go, only love would know
    You think you were wrong until
    You learned once and for all it's still
    Once more lesson on the way
    Or that is what it seemed to say
    She's not the kind who would soon step down
    Not the kind you would try to walk around
    When only a thought would go very well
    You can tell by the touch
    Ah but only love would know

    Passion burnin' bright
    Tears of passion late at night
    Is the light of passion burning bright
    Everywhereyou go, only love would know
