LOVE'S BLUE LIGHT SANG SO SWEETLY
LOVE TURNED MY CURSING TO A
WIND IN THE COTTON WOODS
LOVE LIFTED MY BROKEN HEAD
IN ITS FIERY WINGS
LOVE COUNTED US ONE BY ONE
WITHOUT LIGHT OR SCIENCE
LOVE SHOWED ME ALL THE
BROKEN THINGS I HAD EVER DONE
LOVE SAID NO MATTER - THEY ALL
SPRING FROM LOVE
LOVE POURED A DRINK
LOVE THREW AWAY THE BOTTLE
LOVE LICKED UP THE SHARDS
LOVE CALLED OUT MY NAME
LOVE IS A BRIGHT BLUE
SEED FLOATING IN MY HEAD
LOVE MOTIONED ME TO FOLLOW
LOVE BROUGHT ME OUT
LOVE WILL TAKE ME BACK AGAIN.
LOVE IS ALL THIS LIGHT AND LIFE
NEVER SEEN BEFORE
LOVE CAN NOT LIE
LOVE WILL NOT CLAIM THE TRUTH
LOVE IS IN YOUR EYES
LOVE IS WHAT THERE IS.
LOVE JUST IS AND IS AND IS AND IS...
LOVE SAYS
I AM ...YOU ARE
AND NOTHING MORE
