When the world shakes us
Trying to take us out of line
Fear of tomorrow
Feelings we borrow for a time
Water so deep, how do we breath
How do we climb
So we stay in this mess
This beautiful mess tonight
And we don’t have a thing to lose
No matter what they say or do
I don’t want nothing more
Our love is untouchable
Even in the line of fire
When everything is on the wire
Even up against the wall
Our love is untouchable
Our love is untouchable
When the colors turn grey and the lights all fade
to black again
We’re in over our heads
But somehow we make it back again
Water so deep
How do we breath
How do we climb
So we stay in this mess
This beautiful mess tonight
And we don’t have a thing to lose
No matter what they say or do
I don’t want nothing more
Our love is untouchable
Even in the line of fire
When everything is on the wire
Even up against the wall
Our love is untouchable
Ohhhh
Ohhh no no no
Even in the line of fire
When everything is on the wire
Even up against the wall
Our love is untouchable
Our love is untouchable
