Some people tell me 
The blues ain't bad, 
But, I've never know anything 
Make me feel so sad... 
Running on empty, hurting to the core, 
When everything don't mean nothing any more... 

From a distance 
Every little thing looks fine, 
But, the closer you get 
You see the make up, 
Cracked and lined... 
Somewhere there's a rainbow 
With a pot of gold, 
But, by the time you get there 
It's been taken and sold... 

So I keep saying, baby... 

All in the name of love, 
It's all in the name of love, my friend, 
All in the name of love 
We all suffer in the end... 

In my room 
There are no shadows in the wall, 
'Cause I closed up the window 
So no light gets in at all. 
It's a bad situation, 
With no end in sight, 
A heartache deep as the ocean 
And darker than the night... 

So I keep saying to you, baby, 

All in the name of love, 
It's all in the name of love, my friend, 
All in the name of love 
We all suffer in the end... 

With no one to lean on 
You pray to the Lord above, 
But, we keep hurting each other 
In the name of love... 

All in the name of love... 

With no one to lean on 
You pray to the Lord above, 
But, we keep hurting each other 
In the name of love... 

All in the name of love, 
It's all in the name of love, my friend, 
All in the name of love 
We all suffer in the end... 

All in the name of love, 
It's all in the name of love, my friend, 
All in the name of love 
We all suffer in the end... 

All in the name of love...
