Love that's pure hopes all things

Believes all things, won't pull no strings

Won't sneak up into your room, tall, dark and handsome

Capture your soul and hold it for ransom.



You don't want a love that's pure

You wanna drown love

You want a watered-down love.



Love that's pure, it don't make no claims

Intercedes for you 'stead of casting you blame

Will not deceive you or lead you to transgression

Won't write it up and make you sign a false confession.



You don't want a love that's pure

You wanna drown love

You want a watered-down love.



Love that's pure won't lead you astray

Won't hold you back, won't mess up your day

Won't pervert you, corrupt you with stupid wishes

It don't make you envious, it don't make you suspicious.



You don't want a love that's pure

You wanna drown love

You want a watered-down love.



Love that's pure ain't no accident

Always on time, is always content

An eternal flame, quietly burning

Never needs to be proud, nor restlessly yearning.



You don't want a love that's pure

You wanna drown love

You want a watered-down love.
