LOVE LIKE NOTHING
Beautiful life, spent in the service of othersYou answered the call,
you know you did it all out of loveFor your sisters and brothers
What were these voices in your head?And what exactly was it that they said?
Did they not mention that the road of good intention is paved with mirrors?
And you grow dizzy with reflection
We don't need another statueWho can weather any storm
You showed us all how one can stand so tallNow heed the call
And teach us how to fall
Beautiful sun that loves to burnGive you light away, ask for nothing in return
Not like this love that loves to needMakes me dream up loneliness,
makes me dream up greedInvent some mountain I can stand on
Then expect someone to land onSlow to climb when you're so scared to fall
Why can't I love like nothing?Nothing at all
Because nothing lost is nothing wonNothing ending is nothing begun
Love clear as water and you can still drown
But love like nothing can stick aroundShow you the way down
Beautiful sun go on and burn, give us all you light, what could we return?
Burn up these towers that stand so tall, leave us to nothing and nowhere to fall
I want to love like nothing at all; to fall from and nowhere to fall
