You Are Love

Words & lyrics, 1995

There’s a hole in your heart
And it’s bleeding
Your blood is cold
There’s a darkness that’s spreading
Amongst us
Chemical wars

There are children in the street
Clutching weapons
Glue and cocaine
Is there any way out
Of the shattered dreams
Of this age?

Can you feel it?
There’s something in the wind
All around us
Do you know Her?
She is Love!

In the City
The Beloved calls your name
(So softly)
Did you know
You are loved?

Can you feel the rhythm
Moving inside you
In your very veins?
Can you reach out for the touch
Of another
Witness the pain?

In there a passion for something
Beyond you
A mountain,  a road?
Is there a voice in the stillness
That whispers
Calling you Home?

Can you see it?
The Light of Dreams
Of All Knowing
Drop the Veil
There is Love

Can you give to Her?
Sacrifice your all
Surrender
There is an answer
You are love!

There’s a man with no soul
On the corner
Looking for rain
There’s a woman in prison
No vision
Doing the same

There’s a door right before you
Ignore it
And you will not live
"The only way out’s through the portal"
She shouts out
"It’s your gift!"

There’s something in the wind
All around us
Do you know her?
She is Love!

In the City
The Beloved calls your Name
(So softly)
Did you know
You are Loved?

Can you see it?
The Light of Dreams
Of All Knowing
Drop the Veil
There is Love

Can your give to Her?
Sacrifice you All
Surrender
There is an Answer
You are Love!
