Someone said that romance was dead
And I believed it instead of remembering

You remind me what they said
This feeling inside
I can't explain
But my love is alive
And I'm never gonna hide it again

You are part Mother Theresa and a valentine
Some man’s pariah and a slippery slope
But to me you are the fire and I fly to my hope
