Oh, you can't say nothing to the pouring rain
  And you can't say nothing till there's hope
  Again -
  (Say) - oh my baby - you must never change
  For we're only the ones we love
  And I've stood stolen by the pauper's heart
  Yes, I've stood stolen where the aching starts
  But the way you watched - it's a life apart
    For we're only the ones we love
  Only
  Only
  You're the only one who could say
  I could love this way
  I could love this way
    Oh, you can't get even with this kind of pain
  But to see you steady brings the calm, again
  (Say) - oh my baby - let them stay the same
  For we're only the ones we love
  And they've seen something which I'll never see
  But - I dreamed something when you fell for me
  (Yeah), I dreamed something which soars above
    For we're only the ones we love
  Only the ones we love
  Yes, love, and love, mmm, mmm
  This love, love
  Oh, I get tired - and I get old
  But to see you steady brings a flood of gold
  (Say, oh, my baby) - I've been taught and told
    We're only the ones we love
  Only the ones we love
  Love, love, mmm, mmm
  This love, mmmm, mmm
