@ALBUM:
@SONG: My love is your love
If tomorrow is judgement day (sing mommy)
And I'm standin' on the front line
And the Lord ask me what I did w/ my life
I will say I spent it with you
If I wake up in WW 3
I see destruction and poverty
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if you coming' with me
Chorus:
Cause your love is my love
and my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
If I lose my fame and fortune
And I'm homeless on the street
And I'm sleepin' in Grand Central Station
It's okay if you're sleepin' with me
As the years they pass us by
We stay young through each other's eyes
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you babe
Chorus
If I should die this very day
Don't cry, cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay
And no matter what people day
I'll be waiting for you after judgement day
Chorus
