Love
Love is not a game you play,
If you have it, love shines bright.
And you can’t hide it away,
For it will shine a thousand nights.
Love is not a jewel you buy or a token that you give.
When it’s real, it’s deep inside,
And it makes you want to live.
Love is all or nothing,
For without it there’s no sun
It’s like a bolt of lightning,
Or being shot through with a gun.
Love makes you run through fields,
It makes you cry out loud.
Love is always true and giving,
Never ignorant or proud.
Without love there is no reason and no stories to be told,
It’s as old as life itself and God gave it to the world.
