Your Face Could Launch a Thousand Ships
Helens face launched a thousand ships
Do you believe she desired a legacy such as this
To be the center of a war
All for a love that she could not control
Many people live, die and fight for love
It’s the strongest emotion that drives us on
It makes do the craziest of things
It inspires the songs we sing
It’s far better than that feeling of hate
But either one can leave disaster in its wake
Love is powerful, love is strong
Use it with care so that it does no wrong
But as Helen of Troy found out
That when you fall in love without a doubt
It can cause empires to fall
And can wreak havoc with us all
So take care but never be afraid to share
Love with those people for whom you care.
