Love, L-O-V-E
I love you
I love me
I love he
I love she
I love they
I love then
I love now
I love before
I love after
I love forever
I love why
I love
I love sky
I love truth
I love floor
I love ground
I love sing
I love happy
I love joy
I love to hate death
I love to hate evil’s employ
I love I love I love
I love to never want to hate
I love to never want to kill
I love to never want to read more stories of anger and despair
I love to see the truth
out there
I love to ask why
I love to not want to have to die
I love l-o-v-e
most beautiful word in
hist-o-ry
love, l-o-v-e
"what’s that sound
everybody knows whats going down"
love, l-o-v-e
is coming home
to house and home and hearth
and park bench
where homeless man sleeps
night away
having worked his whole life
as a good man
sing out the truth
dear world
falling down
falling down
into ground
dear world
sing out the truth
nevermore
for how many times
do we have to knock on the door
before one percent
hears the cries of truth?
how long will we have to sit here and cry?
I love
i hope that love will win the day
I hope people listen to that word love
l-o-v-e
l-o-v-e
mothers fathers daughters brothers sisters aunts and uncles
evermore
knock on my door
knock on my door
pay me a visit
l-o-v-e
knock on my door
my brother
knock on my door
my sister
knock on my door
knock on my door
pay me a visit
knock on my door
come say hello
knock on my door
knock on my door
knock on my door
and tell me
I love you.
