Verse 1 (Lead)
One minute, we’re laughing, feels so right…
(Choir, soft echo): Feels so right…
Next thing I know, we’re in another fight.
(Choir): In another fight…
I love you, but I’m tired, baby, I’m worn,
We’re losing the flame that kept us warm.
Pre-Chorus (Lead)
Lord, I’m prayin’ we break these walls we’ve made,
(Choir): Break these walls…
Find our way back before love fades.
(Choir): Don’t let it fade…
We’re meant to be two hearts beatin’ as one,
Not driftin’ apart ‘til the love is gone.
Chorus (Lead + Choir)
Baby, we’ve got to do better — (Choir): Do better… together,
Hold on through the storm and weather — (Choir): Through the storm… and weather…
Don’t let this be the end of our story — (Choir): No, no, no…
‘Cause we know that love holds glory — (Choir): Love stays true…
Yeah… love always stays true.
Verse 2 (Lead)
Feels like we’re strangers in the same place,
(Choir): Same place…
When we should be wrapped in a warm embrace.
(Choir): Warm embrace…
Every brick we lay just keeps us apart,
We should be mending this broken heart.
Bridge (Lead)
Tear it down — (Choir): Tear it down…
Stone by stone — (Choir): Stone by stone…
Find our way back to the love we’ve known — (Choir): Love we’ve known…
Remember the promise, remember the vow,
If we still believe, we can save us now.
Chorus (Repeat) (Lead + Choir)
Baby, we’ve got to do better — (Do better… together…)
Hold on through the storm and weather — (Through the storm… and weather…)
Don’t let this be the end of our story — (No, no, no…)
‘Cause we know that love holds glory — (Love stays true…)
Yeah… love always stays true.
Outro (Ad-libs) (Lead with choir behind)
Don’t you let it go — (Stay true…)
Don’t you walk away — (Stay true…)
We can make it, if we just stay — (Stay true…)
Ohhh… love… always stays true.
Yes it does… yes it does…
Love… stays… true.
