Only The Ones We Love

Only The Ones We Love - Tanita Tikaram

Written by：Tikaram Tan

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

Love

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

Yes only the ones we love

Love love

This love
