The Love Train

The Love Train

One blade of grass drifting in the wind
 The tongue is a strange evil in it's mouth.
 A line is being drawn in the sand you understand
 The beat of the clock to watch the grand tick tock
 The surface of the sun has tainted my inner vision
 Stregnth in number still you need to be forgiven
 This isn't a one stop shopping event at seven eleven
 One word spoken in the dark has now been brought to light
 We only get one chance to make a good first impression
 Suffer in the silence in the very cell of your room
 It's my belief that for instant relief a hug is the best gift of all
 The empty soul left helpless outside in the rain
 I need love to carry me from all the hurt & pain
 Through the sweltering heat with bloodshed in the street
 A bargain basement type of deal another chance to spin the wheel
 Send the American troops home no good reason for them to roam
 A mother's cry as he door bell rings 
 Vanishing salute to freedom as the church choir sings
 Let's look above to the heavenly love
 Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plough
 Love has gained it also has lost humanities heaviest cost
 Merciful one take this chip off my shoulder stop the fighting
 Let's join hands and celebrate are difference
 Love is the essence of my existence so stop the resistance
 On the surface of the moon there's a glow to show
 If you lose love it's better to have lost then no love at all
 Celebrate by starting a revival that starts in each of are hearts
 For this had lit the inner spark to what it is I have been waiting for
