Love Takes the Place
When love takes the place of passion
you’ll step back and step out of fashion
when loves starts replacing, the facade you been makin
your old world will come down crashin
When love takes the place of mystery
sheds a light on your old life for you to see
when you step aside, of your foolish pride
you’ll finally understand history
and it’s not what you thought it would be
you got caught, with your heart up your sleeve, thankfully
When love takes the place of a troubled mind
you’ll scurry and hurry home double-time
when your hear is kept
from those foolish and inept
you’ll finally appreciate sunshine
And it’s not what you thought it would be
you got caught, with your heart up your sleeve, thankfully
now you’re drifting like a fool, next to me.
