Embrace - Love Is a Basic Need

I'm on an island water won't reach
A Titanic diamond under the sea
Don't you be frightened
I know we're in deep
The root of all evil has flowers it feeds
That grow through the pavement
And break the concrete
Only to die there under your feet

And I know everything you want
'Cause it's everything I'm not
And you're everything I'm never gonna be
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need

Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea
Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me
The fruit on it's branches is out of my reach
I'm like an alien, I only want peace
Drop all your weapons, they're useless on me
Like air and shelter, your love is a need

And I know everything you want
'Cause it's everything I'm not
And you're everything I'm never gonna be
And I'd give everything I've got
If I'd anything you want
But I'm everything you're never gonna need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
