Oh, What Love Can Do

by Sway - Scorpio

When royal family blood shed
She dreamed of her love in an icy bed
For there was never a story of more woe
Than that of Juliet and her Romeo
Oh, what love can do

It was she that led him to temptation
That led to lack of trust and contemplation
For it was in the hands of something bigger
Eve loaded the gun and Adam pulled the trigger
Oh, what love can do

What made us cry
What left lips dry
What anger left inside
And jealousy unable to hide
Oh, what love can do 

What made a heart beat
What swept us off of our feet
Come what may
Lasting to our dying day
Oh, what love can do

Behind the torrent of tears
Were some of the most amazing years
That were worth throwing our lives away
Even if lasting for only a day
Oh, what love can do

Whether it be love at first
Or a friendship grown stronger in spite
Love lifts us up where we belong
And fills our head with that silly love song
Oh, what love can do
