Everlasting Love
Simon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me to the edge of everlasting love
Where I might fall in like a mind-numbing drug
Oh, I want the sky to feel when I'm high
Falling for you my love

Take me there, everlasting love
Oh, take me there so I can fall in
Take me there, everlasting peace
Oh, take me there so I can fall in
Take me to the edge of love

Take me to the edge of everlasting peace
Glancing from the porch to the great open sea
With you by my side and the world behind
Falling for you my love

Take me there, everlasting love
Oh, take me there so I can fall in
Take me there, everlasting peace
Oh, take me there so I can fall in
Take me to the edge of love

Take me to the edge of love
Take me to the edge of love




Of love, of love, of love, of love
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
