There's a million songs about it
People just can't live without it
I've been looking all my life
What is love

(He's more machine now than man)

My hands have kept you in this place
Now I release you
The shame is painted on your face
Now I believe you
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on

Carry on my wayward lover
We do not deserve each other
I am lonely but I'm learning
What is love

(He's more machine now than man)

My hands have kept you in this place
Now I release you
The shame is painted on your face
Now I believe you
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on

In the valley of our shadow
Wandering like stars
Miles of empty space between us
I see who you are

[Chorus]
My hands have kept you in this place
Now I release you
The shame is painted on your face
Now I believe you
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on
Why are we holding on

My hands have kept you in this place
Now I release you
The shame is painted on your face
Now I believe you
My hands have kept you in this place
Now I release you
The shame is painted on your face
Now I believe you
