“Is Your Love Strong Enough” (Ferry)

Just one step at a time
And closer to destiny
I knew at a glance
There’d always be a chance for me
With someone I could live for
Nowhere I would rather be

Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?

Just one beat of your heart
And stranger than fantasy
I knew from the start
It had to be the place for me
Someone that I would die for
There’s no way I could ever leave

Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Is your love strong enough?

Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?

“Is Your Love Strong Enough?” as written by Bryan Ferry
