Skyscraping Lyrics - 1998

[ Buy Skyscraping ]

Like kisses from ices

And tiffany tokens

Life's full of surprises

So many emotions

Why try to fix

What isn't broken



Life comes in sovereigns

Love comes in gold

A cargo of moments

You'd swear you could hold

But it slips away somehow

(where) nobody knows



* love is it's own reward

Love is it's own reward

Take it or leave it

Fake it or feel it

Love is it's own reward



Hoist the mainsail

To perilous waters

Step below deck

You'll find elegant quarters

Who's gonna save you

If you should falter



Watch the main phase

Sail through the century

Rise like a starman

And blaze on re-entry

What's there to life

Running on empty



(* repeat)



Walking down main street

With cupid and psyche

Whom should we meet

But sweet aphrodite

I fall to my knees

And praise the almighty



We never go hungry

We never get bored

We are the future

That can't be ignored

Love can rob you of your thunder

And that's more than you can afford



(* repeat)



Love is it's own reward

Love is it's own reward

Take it or leave it

Let me reveal it

Love is it's own reward
