lyrics

Love is the answer
I know you’re hurting and the cracks are beginning to show
It’s hard to ask for help in an all time low
But there’s one thing that you can’t see
That’s the power of you and me
And the answer is something, something you already know

What is the answer?
What is the answer?

Friend surfing has it’s problems that’s for sure
Ten a penny not a sign of a decent cure
When Identity has gone without a trace
And you don’t recognise your own face
There’s one ray of sunshine, you’ll never have to chase

What is the answer?
What is the answer?
Love is the answer!
Love is the answer!
