Love saves you

Solo voice with backing vocals

(Chorus, rpt)
Love saves you,
Love makes you,
Love takes you
And turns you around.

When you can’t see the sky, (love saves you),
And the seas are so high, (all around),
When you feel half-alive, (love saves you),
You don’t think you can survive, (feeling so down),

When the road seems so long, (love saves you),
And you know the road is wrong, (oh, so wrong),
There’s a weight on your back, (on your back),
Always seems to pull you back, (pulling you down),

When there is no-one to need you, (love saves you),
And on-one who feeds you, (love saves you),
And you’re feeling so small, (oh so small),
And the hammer is about to fall...

(Chorus)
Love saves you,
Love makes you,
Love takes you
And turns you around.

Love throws a line to the lost at sea,
Love takes your hand and guides you home,
Love comes to help the hungry and needy,
And when you’re down, love turns you round.

Love is like a shining light, (love saves you),
Love puts the world to right, (love saves you),
Open your heart and let it in, (love saves you),
I’m telling you that love is everything...

(Chorus, rpt)
Love saves you,
Love makes you,
Love takes you
And turns you around.
