Make it easy and I'll hold it against you I'm on a string dangled right in front of you Make it hard and I'll run away Keep tomorrow as I kill today Trying to figure just what I deserve Slashing lines all across the earth Patience only makes the dream come true Everything I see I hold to you Tell me, this is it— The Truly Great Thing The love you've hoped to find Any doubt will simply wipe itself out As we're rising deeper the first and last time Lift me up and drop me down again Every day I feel confusion, pain Love is what we've all been waiting for Something powerful to smash it all apart Can't love if you're locked up tight The dream of perfection, nothing ever seems right All the world will tell you, "You're all wrong" Big big deal if you're wrong This is it— The Truly Great Thing The love you've hoped to find Any doubt will simply wipe itself out To rising deeper the first and last time
