With the fire from the fireworks up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another, but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land
In the temple of love, you hide together
Still believing pain and fear outside
So but someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on
Walls as wide as lovers eyes
In the temple of love
Shine like thunder
In the temple of love
Cry like rain
In the temple of love
Hear my calling
In the temple of love
Hear my name
And the devil in a black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short, and love is always over in the morning
Black wind, come carry me far away
With the sunlight died and night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside (ooh-ooh)
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another, it's all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside
With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
Shine like thunder, cry like rain
And the temple of love grows old and strong
But the wind blows stronger, cold, and long
And the temple of love will fall before this
Black wind calls my name to you no more
In the black sky, thunder sweeping under
Ground and over water, sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing, 96 below the wave
When stone is dust, and only air remains
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Shine like thunder
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Hear which calling (hear the calling)
In the temple of love
Is falling down
Temple of love, hm-mm-mm
Temple of love
Oh-oh-oh
Ah, no, no, no
Uh-
Hm, yeah, yeah
Hm, yeah, yeah
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Shine like thunder
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Hear my calling
In the temple of love
Hear my name
When the black sky, thunder sweeping under ground
And over water, sounds
Of crying, weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and air remains
The only haven you can't trust
And the devil in a black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short, and love is always over in the morning
Black wind, come carry me far away
With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
Shine like thunder, cry like rain
And the temple of love grows old and strong
But the wind blows stronger, cold, and long
And the temple of love will fall before us
Black wind calls my name to you no more
Don't know what to do
Don't know what
In the temple of love, you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on
And walls as wide as lovers' eyes
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Shine like thunder (like thunder)
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love)
Hear my calling
In the temple of love
Is falling down
