have you ever been in love

have you ever been in love?

feels just like a mystery

a story written on the stars

jupiter and mars

well

i can't see that far. have you ever been in love?

it's just like a kaleidoscope

a thousand tiny shards

the colours of your heart

together and apart. and i'm happy to believe

but if it's just a feeling

how will i know?

and if it's something fleeting

where does it go?

and can i keep holding it all

together alone?

lately i've been needing love?

have you ever been in love?

it feels just like a showdown. the company i keep

lying at my feet

you get what you deserve. have you ever been in love?

it feels just like a land mine. the fire in the bright

the silence and the spite

and nothing's ever right. and i'm happy to believe

but if it's just a feeling

how will i know?

and if it's just a fleeting

where does it go?

and can i keep holding it all

together alone

lately i've been needing love

and maybe what i see

and maybe what i need

what i cannot believe

but i'm happy to believe in love

have you ever been in love?

it feels just like home. and every time it leaves

me crying on my knees

i pray for it again.
