Love that’s pure hopes all things
Believes all things, won’t pull no strings
Won’t sneak up into your room, tall, dark and handsome
Capture your soul and hold it for ransom.

You don’t want a love that’s pure
You wanna drown love
You want a watered-down love.

Love that’s pure, it don’t make no claims
Intercedes for you ‘stead of casting you blame
Will not deceive you or lead you to transgression
Won’t write it up and make you sign a false confession.

You don’t want a love that’s pure
You wanna drown love
You want a watered-down love.

Love that’s pure won’t lead you astray
Won’t hold you back, won’t mess up your day
Won’t pervert you, corrupt you with stupid wishes
It don’t make you envious, it don’t make you suspicious.

You don’t want a love that’s pure
You wanna drown love
You want a watered-down love.

Love that’s pure ain’t no accident
Always on time, is always content
An eternal flame, quietly burning
Never needs to be proud, nor restlessly yearning.

You don’t want a love that’s pure
You wanna drown love
You want a watered-down love.
