Lyrics Alison Moyet

Alison Moyet

Love Reign Supreme

Do you keep for a relic

Every ticket in your pocket

For a time you eed reminding

Of the wedding and the binding?

Will you cherish every barb

That caught you soft and unprotected

Like a souvenir collected

Of the harrow and the hiding?

You are more than the sum

Of the numbers you've been done

And it fits to be kind

Even as your chest is bleeding

And may love reign supreme in your heart

Hold on to what you know

You light the room, you give it all

Take with you when you go

The smile that you've been sketching

On my face

And if you slip again

The nearest truth is when you do

And as you slip away

I'm waiting here

For everything to change

WIll you write me a card when you

Reach your destination?

I won't take it as a white flag

Or a sign of hesitation

Just a temporary token

I'll be keeping in my pocket

WIth a Biro and a lighter

'til it smacks of desperation

We are more than the sum

Of the numbers we've been done

And it's right to be kind

Even as your chest is bleeding

And may love reign supreme in your heart

May love reign supreme in your heart

Hold on to what you know

You light the room

You give it all

Take with you when you go

The smile that you've been

Sketching on my face

And if you slip again

The nearest truth is when you do

And as you slip away

I'm waiting here

For everything to change
