Lyrics
Find another songBeen looking for a common language, a two-way conversation
Spent my life in between the lines, getting lost in translation
But you could say a thousand words, with just a touch of your hand
And I know you get me, you understand
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll never see you better when you're laying in my loving arms
And I could write it down letter by letter but it wouldn't speak my heart
Like holding you close
Oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I've been looking for a common language, the words can never speak
I can hear it in your eyes whenever you look at me
I can make you feel the things I don't know how to say
One kiss on your lips is all it takes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll never see you better when you're laying in my loving arms
And I could write it down letter by letter but it wouldn't speak my heart
Like holding you close
Oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
There's no doubt, no need to explain
Just two hearts speaking the same way
I've been looking for a common language
A heart that sounds like home
For the only love I know
And I'll never see you better than when you're laying in my loving arms
And I could write it down letter by letter but it wouldn't speak my heart
Like holding you close
Oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That's the only love I know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That's the only love I know
That's the only love I know
