In order to love ... one has to feel

There's nothing else in the deal ...

And, sometimes, we get confused

By other factors we tend to use ...



True love comes from a clear mind

It is not connected by other binds 

We love not because we want to get

But because our hearts are fully met



There's a freedom we feel deep down inside

Freedom to give without any need to hide

And when this becomes part of our being ...

Then we truly do have the right way of seeing



Love ... the most wonderful thing in the world

For it creates passion overflowing ... toes curl

And from this root our flowers then bloom ...

For we have all the good and none of the gloom
