Vanessa Williams & Brian McKnight





[Vanessa]

They say it's a river, that circles the Earth

A beam of light shinin' to the edge of the universe

It conquers all

It changes everything



They say it's a blessing

They say it's a gift

They say it's a miracle and I believe that it is

It conquers all

But it's a mystery



1 - Love breaks your heart

Love takes no less than everything

Love makes it hard



And it fades away

So easily



[Brian]

In this world we've created

In this place that we live

In the blink of an eye babe, the darkness slips in

Love lights the world

Unites the lovers for eternity



2 - Love breaks the chains

Love aches for every one of us

Love takes the tears and the pain

And then turns it into the beauty that remains



[Vanessa]

Look at this place

It was paradise

But now it's dying

I'll pray for love



[Brian]

I'll take, my chances that it's not too late





[Vanessa] (Repeat 1)





[Brian]

And it fades away so easily

Oh Oh Oh
