Love breaks your heart

Brian McKnight & Vanessa Williams

They say it’s a river that circles the Earth
A beam of light shining to the edge of the universe
It conquers all, it changes everything

They say it’s a blessing, they say it’s a gift
They say it’s a miracle and I believe that it is
It conquers all, but it’s a mystery

Love breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away so easily

In this world we’ve created, in this place that we live
In the blink of an eye, babe, the darkness of sin
Love lights the world
It lights the lovers for eternity

Love breaks the chain
Love aches for every one of us
Love takes the tears and pain
And turns it into the beauty that remains

Love can’t explain
It was paradise and now it’s dying
I’ll pray for love
I’ll take my chances that it’s not too late

Love breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away so easily

Oh, love breaks the chain
Love aches for every one of us
Love takes the tears and the pain
And it turns it into the beauty that remains
