Lyrics

Working on the courage to cross that line

Working on summoning the courage to take a bold step

I can see a storm cloud swirling in your mind

Observing a mental turmoil or conflict in the other person

Take me down the notch or crumble my tower

Requesting to bring down the arrogance or pride, or destroy emotional defenses

Just give me a couple days and start swinging your hammer

Asking for a brief time to prepare emotionally for a forthcoming challenge


'Cause it's only love, so don't be afraid

Emphasizing that the situation involves only love and shouldn't be feared

It will let you down, but not today

Assuring that love may disappoint eventually, but not at this moment

It's only love, only love

Reiterating that the situation is about love and nothing else

It won't let you down until tomorrow

Clarifying that love won't let you down immediately, but possibly in the future


Working on my plan to settle my bones

Planning to find peace and settle into a stable state

Dropping my mask and let my tired eyes show

Removing a façade and revealing one's true, weary self

I could feel the truth about to fall like rain

Sensing a moment of truth approaching like rain about to fall

And plain house starting feel like pain

Describing a familiar place becoming emotionally painful


But it's only love, so don't be afraid

Reassuring not to fear because the situation involves only love

It will let you down, but not today

Affirming that love may disappoint, but not immediately

It's only love, only love

Stating again that the essence of the situation is love

It won't let you down until tomorrow

Repeating that love won't let you down right away, maybe in the future


One last night I know

Acknowledging the awareness of a final night

One last chance I've blown

Regretting a missed opportunity for reconciliation

One more night before we dig up what we've sewn

Anticipating one more night before facing the consequences of actions

And speak of what we've always known

Discussing and acknowledging longstanding truths


That it's only love, so don't be afraid

Reiterating not to fear because the situation involves only love

It will let you down, but not today

Ensuring that love may disappoint, but not immediately

It's only love, only love

Emphasizing that the essence of the situation is love

It won't let you down until tomorrow

Restating that love won't let you down right away, maybe in the future


Only love, so don't be afraid

Reiterating not to fear because the situation involves only love

It will let you down, but not today

Affirming that love may disappoint, but not immediately

It's only love, only love

Stating again that the essence of the situation is love

It won't let you down until tomorrow

Repeating that love won't let you down right away, maybe in the future
