A man stood before me
Bowed his head and he prayed
Words from the heart
A moment of grace
He spoke soft and clearly
Of only two things
Both primal emotions
Of commoners and kings

He said, good people do bad things
Bad people do good
If the choice is between love and fear
I choose love, yeah
Ooh, I choose love

The devil has his Bible
The preacher has his horns
Even angels fall
Every rose has its thorns
Like fire and water
Together can't exist
One kills the other
Judas with a kiss

Good people do bad things
Bad people do good
If the choice is between love and fear
I choose love, yeah
Ooh, I choose love
I choose love
Oh, love
Yeah, love

The man who beats his woman
Then says for you I'd die
He's afraid she's leaving
She's afraid to try
Oh, love is patient
You see, love is kind
But if hidden by fear, yeah
Then it's hard to find

Good people do bad things
Bad people do good
If the choice is between love and fear
I choose love, yeah, oh

Good people do bad things, yeah
Bad people do good
If the choice is between love and fear
I choose love, oh
I choose love, yeah
I choose love
Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love…
