there's a twisted tree by the cemetery
her branches reach out
embracing another gray and lifeless one

      well these are the lovers
      they've been here for years
      they've weathered the storm
      though they've counted some tears
      but they're always together
      even when they're apart
      their past and their future
      are joined at the heart, because

      love, love - never goes away
      love, love - is new with every day
      love, love - you should hear what people say
      when they're in love love love

crowds go by without questioning
"What have we here?"
something eternal as the days go rushing by
it's perfectly clear

      that these are the lovers
      they've been here for years
      they've weathered the storm
      and they've counted some tears
      but they're always together
      even when they're apart
      their past and their future
      are joined at the heart, because

      love, love - never goes away
      love, love - is new with every day
      love, love - you should hear what people say
      when they're in love love love

      tell your tale to me
      i wanna learn from your story
      don't want a word of fantasy
      i'll take the pain with the glory

      love, love - never goes away
      love, love - is new with every day
      love, love - you should hear what people say
      when they're in love love love

      love love love
