  Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes. But it's the only thing that I know.
  And when it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes. It is the only thing that makes us feel alive
 
[Chorus]

  We keep this love in a photograph, we make these memories for ourselves. Where our eyes are never closing,
  hearts were never broken and time's forever frozen still.
 
 
[Chorus]

  So you can keep me, inside the pocket of your ripped jeans. Holding me closer 'till our eyes meet
                   You won't ever be alone. Wait for me to come home

  Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul. It is the only thing that I know, know.I swear it will get
  easier, remember that with every piece of ya. And it's the only thing we take with us when we die.

There is a sudden shift in scale after the intro, I don't think it is a part of the original song? Correct me if I'm wrong but, everything from the verse must be shifted down by two semitones
