Lyrics to Is Your Love Strong Enough?

Lyrics to the song Is Your Love Strong Enough? as recorded by Bryan Ferry. 

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