Love doesn't come with a guarantee

It may hurt you, you know it's killing me

Love slips in between the sheets

From the shady side of the street

Love's a thief who will make you cry

Make you weep and even make you die

Get you lost, get you found

Lift you up if it can let you down

I want to be your sword

I want to be your shield

I want to be absorbed

I want to be revealed

I'm a burning bridge

To a ragged shore

I'm a rolling stone

Stopping at your door

See me soar, see me spin

I want to be your sword

Not your safety pin

Love's a banner in the air

It isn't free and it isn't fair

Love takes place on a high wire

On a narrow ledge, in a ring of fire

I want to be your sword

I want to be your shield

I want to be absorbed

I want to be revealed

I'm a churning storm

Yearning for a calm

I'm a rolling stone

In your open palm

See me soar, see me spin

I want to be your sword

Not your safety pin

Safety pin

I'm a burning bridge

To a ragged shore

I'm a rolling stone

Stopping at your door

I'm a churning storm

Yearning for a calm

I'm a rolling stone

In your open palm

I'm a churning storm

Yearning for a calm

I want to be absorbed

I want to be revealed

I'm a churning storm

Yearning for a calm

I want to be absorbed

I want to be revealed
