"Only Love Remains" lyrics

"Only Love Remains"

I've said so long to the hills of LA
I told that town to get lost
Even if I had the money to stay
Still can't afford what it cost

From riches to rags
From diamonds to coal
You've always seemed better to me
You trade in your silver for the price of my soul
To buy what is already free

All my things melt away
Only love, love remains

My brother is a prince
My father is a king
I was given no crown of my own
So I left the country
And I started to sing
But since then my fortune has grown

All my things melt away
Only love, love remains

In the daylight seems restless in the wounds of a man
His instincts are out of control
He's so worried about comfort
He spends all of his time
In vain filling space in his soul

All my things melt away
Only love, love remains
All my things melt away
Only love, love remain
