Wow!

It’s all too much for me to see,
The love that’s shining all around you.
It’s ev’rywhere, it’s what you make,
For us to take each other’s love.

It’s all too much for me to see,
The love that’s shining all around me.
The more i am, the less i know
And what i do, is live for love.

Hey hey hey hey
Oh, no no no no no
Yeah hey hey hey
Alright
Wooh, yeah, yeah
It’s all too much, it’s all too much, it’s all too much

It’s all too much for me to see,
The love that’s shining all around you.
It’s ev’rywhere, it’s what you make,
For us to take each other’s love.

It’s all too much for me to see,
The love that’s shining all around me.
All the world is built in hate
So take a piece of my true love

It’s all too much, it’s all too much
It’s all too much, it’s all too much
It’s all too much, it’s all too much, wow
It’s all too much, it’s all too much

Hcum oot lla s’ti, hcum oot lla s’ti
Hcum oot lla s’ti, wow, hcum oot lla s’ti
