Oh, you can't say nothing to the pouring rain
And you can't say nothing till there's hope again
Say, oh my baby, you must never change
For we're only the ones we love

I've stood stolen by the pauper's heart
Yes, I've stood stolen where the aching starts
But the way you watched it's a life apart
For we're only the ones we love

Only, only
You're the only one who could say
I could love this way (haaa)
I could love this way (haaa)

Oh, you can't get even with this kind of pain
But to see you steady brings the calm, again
Say, oh my baby, let them stay the same
For we're only the ones we love

They've seen something which I'll never see (haaa)
But I dreamed something when you fell for me (haaa)
Yeah, I dreamed something which soars above (haa haa)
For we're only the ones we love

Only the ones we love (haaa)
Yes, love, love, hmmm-hmmm-hmm-hm (haaa)
This love, love (haaa)

Oh, I get tired and I get old
But to see you steady brings a flood of gold
Say, oh, my baby, I've been taught and told
We're only the ones we love

Only the ones we love (haaa)
Love, love, hmmm-hmmm-hmm-hm (haaa)
This love, hmmm-hmmm-hmm-hm (haaa)
