A Love Like That - Edit Lyrics
Katie Melua
Lyrics
I'm taken in by what you've told me
But keep it all inside your songs
This isn't real, you don't even know me
How am I what you're thinking of?
You see you're turning a little crazy
Speaking love into the dust
I've seen it torn into every shape
I've seen it leaving fast
It's a burning fire
It'll be a wreck
A bitter dream
That makes you beg
It falls like rain
It turns to dust
How do you make a love like that last?
How do you make a love like that last?
If you wanna know the answer's yes
I want you for my only one
Everything feels inside out
My blood is burning in the sun
How did you make the rays so strong
The haze of love when you are near
Aren't you afraid of the state of us
When it disappears?
It's a burning fire
It'll be a wreck
A bitter dream
That makes you beg
It falls like rain
It turns to dust
How do you make a love like that last?
How do you make a love like that last?
It's a burning fire
It'll be a wreck
A bitter dream
That makes you beg
It falls like rain
It turns to dust
How do you make a love like that last?
How do you make a love like that last?
How do you make a love like that last?
