Record Tracklist

  1. Love Is an Earthquake -:-- / -:--

Love is an earthquake
It rolls in and heartbreaks
Walls that have stood too long
Tearing them down till the last stone’s gone
‘Cause love is an earthquake

Love shakes your foundation
It makes you uncertain
Like all that you believed up to now was wrong
The ground beneath your feet beats a jarring song
‘Cause love shakes your foundation

I believe

Love is an earthquake
No one knows the hour, no one is safe
From under-surface fault lines comes relief
A devastating power from the deep
And nothing is unchanged
‘Cause love is an earthquake
