lyrics

“The Life and Times of Love”

VERSE
Once upon a time not long ago
There lived a pure and natural thing called love
In its very creation it was a reflection
Of the most highest high from above
Then the darkness came like a thief in the night
Stripping love of its innocence stealing its light
But love vowed to return again and bring forth life, bring forth life

CHORUS
It’s been victimized
It’s been set aside
It’s been blamed for pain it didn’t cause
But love forgives us, love forgive us
Love forgives us, love forgive us, love

VERSE
You found love not long ago
It opened up your mind and it freed your soul
So much you were given, you started expecting
Heartbreak came and you blamed it all on love
But it wasn’t love it was the lies told
The broken promises that made your heart grow cold
Stripping love of its strength, dimming its light
Love will come again, it will never die

CHORUS

BRIDGE
