Lost Not To Love

If for love you lost your heart 
To someone that cares and shares: a friend
You got a case with the potter of your heart 
For he molded for you to share and not lend 

If for love you lost your heart 
To the flowers and flavors of his world
Sit upright and ponder on his little light
 The flowers will one day fade and flavors will fall

If for love you lost your heart
To golden cities, scepter and sword
On day you will say goodbye and they will never cry 
For you met them here a borrowed world
 
If for love your lost heart 
Think of the creators breath’s in the beginning
We all borrowed from it to live and yet
A million breaths is still with him

If for love you lost your heart 
To someone you love and cherish so much
You are in the shoes of Samson before Delilah
For love is not so weak as such 

Love is meant to share and care 
And not to lose what you’ve got to share
Keep your heart oh morning star 
That you may always share your light each day with your love
