C G
There ain't no cure for love
I'm aching for you baby
I can't pretend I'm not
I need to see you naked
In your body and your thought
I've got you like a habit
And I'll never get enough
There ain't no cure
There ain't no cure
There ain't no cure for love

I see you in the subway And I see you on the bus I see you lying down with me And I see you waking up I see your hand, I see your hair Your bracelets and your brush And I call to you, I call to you But I don't call soft enough There ain't no cure There ain't no cure There ain't no cure for love I walked into this empty church I had no place else to go When the sweetest voice I ever heard Whispered to my soul I don't need to be forgiven For loving you so much It's written in the scriptures It's written there in blood I even heard the angels Declare it from above There ain't no cure There ain't no cure There ain't no cure for love
(There ain't no cure for love)
(There ain't no cure for love)
All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky
The holy books are open wide
The doctors working day and night
But they'll never ever find that cure, that cure for love
Em G Em G
(No cure for love, there ain't no cure for love...)
