Love Transcends All

Love transcends all By Michelle Morris 18/03/2023 When we were first separated It felt like a shot to the heart Feeling like I wouldn't make it The world becoming grey and dark People thought I was fine No one looked past my smile Into the soul deep sadness Behind my hazel eyes Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the light Oh, love transcends all miles Oh, bring me back my smile Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the miles Oh, love transcends all borders Oh, bring me back my daughter Across the world in Africa Where lions are kings and rulers Where zebras stripe across the veld And springbok jump through hoops Where the sun beats down Hot and ceaseless every day I'm on a cool, rainbow island Where green hills lead me away Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the light Oh, love transcends all miles Oh, bring me back my smile Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the miles Oh, love transcends all borders Oh, bring me back my daughter Worlds apart, worlds apart Only sharing the same skies Where the stars see everything And the angels mourn our lives Universe, Universe Let's go into a new timezone Where we are always together Beyond dreams and hope Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the light Oh, love transcends all miles Oh, bring me back my smile Oh, under starry skies Oh, can we share the miles Oh, love transcends all borders Oh, bring me back my daughter © Michelle Morris, 2023
