(Mary Chapin Carpenter)
|
It's the spell that can't be broken
|
It's your breath upon my neck
|
It's the words I long to tell you but haven't yet
|
It's the need to see you constantly
|
And the need to be alone
|
Just to balance out what's left of me
|
And what's too far gone
|
What if the night complied, bringing you to my door
|
What if I let you in, baby, isn't that what the night is for?
|
|
In the name of love there's nothing that I would not do
|
In the name of love I'd lose myself to find you
|
In the name of love.....
|
|
It's the prayer I send up daily for some courage and some pride
|
When your hand brushes my shoulder and our eyes collide
|
It's the smallest of seductions and the quietest of lures
|
And I'm all at once an innocent in the big bad world
|
But what if the night conspired, bringing you to my door
|
Why should I turn you away now, I don't want to wait anymore
|
|
In the name of love there's nothing that I would not do
|
In the name of love I'd lose myself to find you
|
In the name of love.....
|
|
But when the darkness fades, giving way to morning light
|
You will find me gone, to carry on the lonely fight
|
|
In the name of love there's nothing that I would not do
|
In the name of love I'd lose myself to find you
|
In the name of love.....
