"Take Love" lyrics

Take love and what have you got?
Half of what you thought of as being a lot
In your mind, it's a pleasure dome
Use it sparingly from the start
When you see what it does
When it's in your heart

Take love
Watch it as it soars
Nothing like it to bring you up
Stands to reason if you come unstuck
Take love (take love)
Take love (take love)
Take love

Take dreams, what have you got?
Everything that's real and everything that's not
While asleep, you can be embraced
Greet the lonely you never met
When you see that he's joining
You in your bed

Take dreams
Good or bad whoknows
Even if they don't all come true
Long as good are the ones that do

Take dreams (take dreams)
Take dreams (take dreams)
Take dreams

I got a rear view mirror
Looking straight at me
I got a feeling tonight maybe
It ain't the way it should be

You wanna hear what I'm saying?
You wanna go for broke?
You wanna see that the lion's share
Is not a pig in a poke

Take hope and what have you got?
Part of what we're part of has gone to pot
If it isn't a fires, it's a tidal surge
What we're doing to put things right
Maybe move from a car to a lane
With a bike

Take hope
Watch it as it flows
If the battle is to be won
Long as nothing of it will have gone

Take hope (take hope)
Take hope (take hope)
Take dreams (take dreams)
Take dreams (take dreams)
Take love
