Love that s pure hopes all things
Believes all thingswon t pull no strings
Won t sneak up into your roomtalldark and handsome
Capture your heart 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 pureit 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 backwon t mess up your day
Won t pervert youcorrupt you with stupid wishes
It don t make you enviousit 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 timeis always content
An eternal flamequietly burning
Never needs to be proudrestlessly yearning.
You don t want a love that s pure
You wanna drown love
You want a watered-down love
