be the lullaby, for my sleepless nights

be the parachute, for my fear of heights

be the crystal ball, that only I can see

be the Virgin Mary, that only sleeps with me

be the Joan of Arc, for who I'll aim

be the oxygen, for my lonely flame

be the cornerstone, for all of my beliefs

be the prophecy, that my kids should eat

give me some love, love, love

I want you love, love, love

I need your love, love, love

as I wait for the rain

be the thin red line, that I'll try to keep

and if I fail, be my retreat

I was born of you, I'm your chosen one

you're the golden bullet, I'm your golden gun

be the good father, who abandoned me

be the faithful mother, who couldn't see

that all the love, that she had to give

without forgiveness, was a tainted gift

give me some love, love, love

I want your love, love, love

I need your love, love, love

as I wait for the rain

be the patience, cause it's what I need

be the gravity, that plants these seeds

we don't ever choose, what we're here to do

and that's my alibi, for loving you
