if i tell you something you need to know   i gotta back it up   i gotta let it show   we can be so loud   we can write a song that makes us all proud   but without love   it's just a sound      everybody show what we know   and let that good stuff flow   everybody show what we know   and let that good stuff flow      i could speak with tongues of Angels   apologetics in a slick rhetoric   either way without love my words are dead   we have love   we have forgiveness   we have grace without a limit   so if it has been revealed to us   should it not then be contagious?      we got the rhythm   we got the rhyme   print up a t-shirt   throw them a line      but without love we are nothing
