One & One

(album: Love - 1987)

One and one is one I hear
But it breaks my heart to come so near
And find division standing in our way
As London burns I lie awake
And wrestle with this passive state
But a broken heart is useless in these days

When I close my eyes to trouble
Baby I see you
And now I have the need to double
Everything I do
So I close my eyes and make a wish
Yeah, dream a dream for me
That one and one will someday be free

Oh boy, I know
The crucial blow
They deal us every day
I feel it too
But need for you
To chase your blues away
But if my heart
Should come apart
My love should turn inside
I'll understand
You're just a man
I'll still be on your side

When I close my eyes to trouble
Baby I see you
And now I have the need to double
Everything I do
So I close my eyes and make a wish
Yeah, dream a dream for me
That one and one will someday be free
