Love At the End of the World

This is love at the end of the world You don't need diamonds and you don't need pearls Water boils on the seven seas Rivers of blood and she's setting me free And you're still near me, baby Smoke rising from an open field Don't you know that the threat is real From the top of Mount Kilimanjaro You look around but you don't see snow The heat is rising, baby This is love at the end of the world There's still love At the end of the world Two wars and a revolution Got me praying for absolution There's blood on these hands, baby Preacher saying that the end is nigh Standing on a soapbox a hundred feet high You're still by my side, baby Light fades, becomes shade You're holding on but you're slipping away Till I can't feel you anymore This is love at the end of the world There's still love At the end of the world Red lips, alabaster hands Ooh girl, what you do to a man The heat is rising, baby You don't think, you just follow the herd And you don't need bullets for a war of words They want what we've got, baby Light fades, becomes shade You're holding on but you're slipping away Till I can't feel you anymore This is love at the end of the world There's still love At the end of the world There's love at the end of the world There's still love At the end of the world
