[SONG BEGIN]


I know it's hard
And words can never
Tell you the way I feel

I know it's like
A cold December
With nothing to hide the fear

Know that I need you so
And I'm strong out on love with no control
And the world retains me far from home
Telephone
No one's home
Expected maybe


[CHORUS BEGIN]


Yes, you should know inside
When it's time to shed a tear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near

Yes, you should know inside
Only time will see ya clear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near


[CHORUS END]


I feel just like
A lonely runner
Running the miracle mile
Or a man
Who's accidentally
Setting himself on fire
Why do I need you so
Am I fooling myself
I'll never know
And I expect to call you up
Telephone
No one's home
Expected someday


[CHORUS BEGIN]


Yes, you should know inside
When it's time to shed a tear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near

Yes, you should know inside
Only time will see ya clear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near


[CHORUS END]


Oh
Spin a heart
Never find the answer
Lonely nights
Keep on getting longer
I ain't sayin'
I got all the answers
Love is the hero
That's all that matters


[GUITAR SOLOS]


[CHORUS BEGIN]


Oh
Yes you should know inside
When it's time to shed a tear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near

Yes you should know inside
Only time will see you clear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near

Oh
Yes you should know deep inside
When it's time to shed a tear
Know in your heart and believe it
Love is standing near
Oh oh


[SONG END]
