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
Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea
Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me
The fruit on its 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've everything you're never gonna need
Only love is a basic need
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
Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea
Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me
The fruit on its 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've everything you're never gonna need
Only love is a basic need
