This = Love

[Verse 1: Danny O'Donoghue] It's in the eyes of our children As they leave for the very first time It's in the heart of a soldier As he takes the bullet on the front line It's in the face of a mother As she takes the force of the blow And it's in the hands of a father (yeah) As he works his fingers to the bone (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] I'm standing under a white flag, oh Can you see me? (oh) Can you see me? (oh) I'm standing for everything we have, oh Can you hear me? (oh) Can you hear me? [Chorus] This is why we do it This is worth the pain This is why we fall down and get back up again This is where the heart lies This is from above Love is this This is love Love is why we do it Love is worth the pain Love is why we fall down and get back up again Love is where the heart lies Love is from above Love is this This is love This is love This is love This is love [Verse 2: Danny O'Donoghue] It's in the soul of a city What it does after it crumbles and burns And it's in the blood of a hero To know where he goes,he may never return (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] I'm standing under a white flag, oh Can you see me? (oh) Can you see me? (oh) I'm standing for everything we have, oh Can you hear me? (oh) Can you hear me? [Chorus] This is why we do it This is worth the pain This is why we fall down and get back up again This is where the heart lies This is from above Love is this This is love Love is why we do it Love is worth the pain Love is why we fall down and get back up again Love is where the heart lies Love is from above Love is this This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love (Whoa yeah) [Bridge: Mark Sheehan] If you could be Anywhere that you wanted be With anyone that you wanted to be with Doing anything that you wanted to do What would it be, man, and who would it be with you? Time flies but your the pilot It moves real fast but you're the driver It may crash and burn sometimes [Chorus] This is why we do it This is worth the pain This is why we fall down and get back up again This is where the heart lies This is from above Love is this This is love Love is why we do it Love is worth the pain Love is why we fall down and get back up again Love is where the heart lies Love is from above Love is this This is love This is love
