Only The Ones We Love Lyrics - Can't Go Back - Tanita Tikaram

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 

And 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, I could love this way 

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 

And they've seen something which I'll never see 

But I dreamed something when you fell for me 

Yeah, I dreamed something which soars above 

For we're only the ones we love, only the ones we love 

Yes, love, love, this love, love 

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 

Love, love, this love
