Starting With Myself

Starting with myself The world- can never get enough of love With so much hate- we need- more love So obvious we need- more love Bridge: When the world seems to be so unkind to pain and suffering we are so blind This is not the way I expected life to be Chorus It's not fair This is not the world that I want It's not what I had planned I just don't understand How to change the heart of man Can't put my plans on the shelf So- I'm starting with myself So love- the answer to all things is love- what the future needs is love - I'll start today to show more love Go to bridge then to chorus So love- the cure to all that's evil is love we're designed to show more love- Are you resolved to show more love? Go to bridge then chorus repeat chorus fade John Derek Hamilton October 16,2016

That's the best place to start, I wish I could figure out how to do that. Your song carries within its melody a great message of love, for indeed, love is the cure to so many things. Really nicely done John.
