Idea of Love

It's not the idea of love That brings it round It's not your audacity That brought me to the ground It's not the idea of war That brings it on It's all that we came here for But never really saw But this hope for change lingers on and when you leave this earth you will sing along This riddle song of love Life's riddle song of love It's not the idea of truth That makes it wrong But this search for righteousness Never captured me for long For all that I hope to be When my days are done Is someone that shared the wealth Of love inside of me But this hope for change lingers on And when you leave this earth, you will sing along This riddle song of love Life's riddle song of love --- Idea of Love - Mark Lanegan and Kira Skov
