I'm on an island, water won't reach
A Titanic diamond under the sea
Don't you be frightened, I know we're in deep
The root of all evil, as flowers it feeds
That grow through the pavement and break the concrete
Only to die there under your feet
And I know everything you want
'Cause it's everything I'm not
And you're everything I'm never gonna be
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea
Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me
The fruit on its branches is out of my reach
I'm like an alien, I only want peace
Drop all your weapons, they're useless on me
Like air and shelter, your love is a need
And I know everything you want
'Cause it's everything I'm not
And you're everything I'm never gonna be
And I'd give everything I've got
If I had anything you want
But I'm everything you're never gonna need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
Only love is a basic need
