C#         Fm  G#
My song is love
C#          Fm         G#
Love to the loveless shown
C#          Fm G#
And it goes on
           F#     Fm   G#
You don't have to be alone

Your heavy heart
Is made of stone
And it's so hard to see you, clearly
You don't have to be on your own
You don't have to be on your own

Chorus:
D#m                C#      G#
And I'm not gonna take it back
D#m                     C#           G#
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
D#m                        C#     G#
You're the target that I'm aiming at
          F#       C#      G#
And I'll get that message home

My song is love
My song is love unknown
But I'm on fire for you, clearly
You don't have to be alone
You don't have to be on your own

Chorus:
And I'm not gonna take it back
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
You're the target that I'm aiming at
And I'm nothing on my own
Got to get that message home

And I'm not gonna stand and wait
I'm not gonna leave it until it's much too late
On a platform, I'm gonna stand and say
That I'm nothing on my own
And I love you, please come home

My song is love, is love unknown
And I've got to get that message home
