Only the Ones We Love

Oh, you can't say nothing to the pouring rain And you can't say nothing till there's hope again Say, oh my baby, you must never change For we're only the ones we love And I've stood stolen by the pauper's heart Yes, I've stood stolen where the aching starts But the way you watched it's a life apart For we're only the ones we love Only, only, you're the only one who could say I could love this way, I could love this way Oh, you can't get even with this kind of pain But to see you steady brings the calm, again Say, oh my baby, let them stay the same For we're only the ones we love And they've seen something which I'll never see But I dreamed something when you fell for me Yeah, I dreamed something which soars above For we're only the ones we love, only the ones we love Yes, love, love, this love, love Oh, I get tired and I get old But to see you steady brings a flood of gold Say, oh, my baby, I've been taught and told We're only the ones we love, only the ones we love Love, love, this love
