Lyrics

With the fire from the fireworks up above me
 With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
 You run for cover in the temple of love
 You run for another, but still the same
 For the wind will blow my name across this land
 In the temple of love you hide together
 Still believing pain and fear outside
 But someone near you rides the weather
 And the tears he cried will rain
 On walls as wide as lovers' eyes
 In the temple of love, shine like thunder
 In the temple of love, cry like rain
 In the temple of love, hear my calling
 In the temple of love, hear my name
 And the devil in a black dress watches over
 My guardian angel walks away
 Life is short and love is always over in the morning
 Black wind come carry me far away
 With the sunlight died and the night above me
 With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
 You run for cover in the temple of love
 You run for another, it's all the same
 For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside
 With the fire from the fireworks up above
 With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
 You run for cover in the temple of love
 Shine like thunder, cry like rain
 And the temple of love grows old and strong
 But the wind blows stronger, cold and long
 And the temple of love will fall before this
 Black wind calls my name to you, no more
 ♪
 In the black sky, thunder sweeping under
 Ground and over water
 Sounds of crying, weeping will not save
 Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
 All your prayers must seem as nothing
 Ninety-six below the wave
 When stone is dust and only air remains
 In the temple of love (temple of love), shine like thunder
 In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain
 In the temple of love (temple of love), hear the calling
 In the temple of love, is falling down
 ♪
 In the temple of love
 In the temple of love (temple of love), shine like thunder
 In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain (like rain)
 In the temple of love (temple of love), hear my calling
 In the temple of love, hear my name
 In the black sky, thunder sweeping
 Underground and over water
 Sounds of crying, weeping will not save
 Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
 All your prayers must seem as nothing
 Ninety-six below the wave
 When stone is dust and air remains
 The only haven you can trust
 And the devil in the black dress watches over
 My guardian angel walks away
 Life is short and love is always over in the morning
 Black wind come carry me far away
 With the fire from the fireworks up above
 With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
 You run for cover in the temple of love
 Shine like thunder, cry like rain
 And the temple of love grows old and strong
 But the wind blows stronger, cold and long
 And the temple of love will fall before this
 Black wind calls my name to you
 ♪
 Hide together, the temple of love
 In the temple of love you hide together
 Still believing pain and fear outside
 But someone near you rides the weather
 And the tears he cried will rain
 On walls as wide as lovers' eyes
 In the temple of love (of love), shine like thunder
 In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain
 In the temple of love (temple of love), hear the calling
 And the temple of love, is falling down
