Lawmen and royalty
And nothing on earth can take that taste
And make it something sweet
I saw the news today
A broken everything with years to pay
And nobody else can save us now
And that's alright by me
'Cos I say

     We make love in theface of it all
     Feel the freedom and the purity
     And what we need is not security
     Something more than a law
     We walk at night in a blind wind
     Through the streets where the rich once lived
     And what we want's beyond the will to win
     Something more than a law

I feel the rain on me
I'm soaked in memory
And never will I betray that love
'Cos that's not love by me
I know prosperity
But he could never be a part of me
The snow and the stone
Feeling never at home
Well she's my poetry
'Cos I say

     Chorus

And when we're lonely
It's more than lonely
So we turn around to say something bigger than us
But then who do you blame when your love is gone
