I was there in the beginning 
I will be the last to leave 
And I'm movin' through the ages 
With the comfort of Godspeed 

There is no such thing as perfect so I might apologise 
That I didn't see the darkness in your eyes 
In your eyes 

I'm a man of many colours 
I'm a man of many names 
I'm a rebel and a teacher 
I am no-one just the same 

If I give away the answers, you have questions put on 
hold 
But I didn't see the weakness in your soul 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for payback 

I've been travellin' every roadside 
I been sailin' every sea 
I been circlin' like in orbit 
'Round that cosmic Christmas tree 

You think science is a fact, but it's just a childish 
game 
And they never saw the greatness of a game 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for payback 

Saw the craziness begin on a cold race straight to Hell 
There ten more hours ago, we just waitin' for the bell 
Not much time for small talk now, besides to Heaven and 
the nail 
Bringing out the muscles for the shadows never fail 

Where did all the goodness go? 
I feel alone 
Suddenly they're just crawling out like from under a 
stone 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for payback 
No, Jack 

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole 
It's like the world just collapsed into space 
If you look for a trace of redemption 
You're not likely to find in this place 

I've always looked for good in everyone 
I've seen so many places under the sun 
Now, then they ought'a let me down 
It's just you and me and time 
I'm a king who lost his crown 
I bid you bread and wine 

Now I sacrifice to find out if I was right 
Now, then they ought'a let me down 
It's just you and me and time 
I'm a king who lost his crown 
I bid you bread and wine 

Where did all the goodness, where did all love go? 
Where is all the kindness? 
Cannot find a home 
First you bring me up and then you break me down 
I don't want your money, I just want your time 

World is getting older now 
World is getting colder now 
Eagle's getting bigger 
This playground for the wicked 

No-one's really listenin' 
No room for the reasonin' 
The cash machine just opened up it's drawers 
So now it's diggin' in 

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole 
It's like the world just collapsed into space 
If you look for a trace of redemption 
You're not likely to find in this place 

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole 
It's like the world just collapsed into space 
If you look for a trace of redemption 
You're not likely to find in this place 

I was here in the beginning 
I will be the last to leave 
You've been told so many times before 
That the truth will set you free 

But still you fabricate your dreams 
On greed and lust and fame 
Bring shame upon your name 
It's so damn hard to elevate 

If I speak to you with clarity 
And you read me back alright 
So that words may go like chefs of light 
Into the darkest night 

There's no way out of here 
There's no way out of here 

There's no way out of here 

I was here in the beginning 
I will be the last to leave 
And I'm movin' through the ages 
With the comfort of Godspeed 

There is no such thing as perfect 
So I might apologise 
That I didn't see the darkness in your eyes 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for payback 

Love is the only answer 
Love's what you feel 
In the end you can invest in love 
But never ask for payback
