From the recording HOLD OUT...HOLDING OUT
Lyrics
IN THE NAME OF LOVE
Are you gonna be faithful…are you gonna be true?
Are you gonna do the things for me I’ll do for you?
Will you love our mornings...will you love our nights?
Will you turn me away or always hold me tight?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
Will you be my lover…will you be my friend?
Will you be there always ‘till the bitter end?
Will you ever get jealous…ever run away?
Will you always be strong enough to stay?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
Will your eyes still adore me as the years go by?
Will your arms just hold me when I need to cry?
Will your heart still dance when we’re old and gray?
Will there always be a kind word left to say?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
In the name of love...
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
Whatcha gonna do in the name of love?
