In the Name of Love

True story I loved her with all my heart
And I wore my heart inside out
Cheerful and loud

She loved me
She turned heads when walking on streets
In spite of the fear
I could lose her
My ego grew big

Her pretty face, seductive ways, the spell she cast with her eyes
Her body glowing on
Saturday nights

We were so young
I was unarmed and didn’t care much for soul
I’d lost my reason, lust had taken control

In the name of love
Surrender your ego, give up your pride
If you seek true love
Your mind and your heart shouldn’t fight

Real love won’t hurt
Remember, before lying to yourself
Love can die away
Into your lies

Heartbroken
I choked on my suffering
Hurting myself while
I asked her
Was he better than me?

She told me
She’d waited too long for a change
I was so in love with my own self
To fill her needs

I cried to her
I want you back, I want you back in my life
Who was really begging? My love or my pride?

In the name of love
Surrender your ego, give up your pride
If you seek true love
Your mind and your heart shouldn’t fight

Real love won’t hurt
Remember before lying to yourself

Love can die away
Into the lies

Love’s not defined by the self and desire
This is what they teach us our dreams should portray
Love is about finding peace in your lover
Put all fears behind, build on friendship and trust

In the name of love
Surrender your ego, give up your pride
If you seek true love
Your mind and your heart shouldn’t fight

Real love won’t hurt
Remember, before lying to yourself
Love can die away
Into the lies

Real love, real love won’t hurt
In the name of love
Real love, real love won’t hurt
