One Love

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇
A song about the love that sustains us, whatever that may be.
I wrote 1000 memories down
A hundred pages long
About a million bridges crossed
10,000 dreams set into song
Much to my surprise looking back upon them all
No matter how many lines I write
They’re all about One Love
A month of holy nights
A year of sparkling dawns
A summer of goodbyes
A winter dead and gone
Much to my surprise looking back upon them all
No matter how many times in sight, they’re all about One Love
Love that made me strong
The times when I was weak
Love that gave me voice
When I couldn’t seem to speak
Courage that I found
When I knew that I could fail
Revelation’s prize in the lifting of the veil
Many years have passed me by
Every day another door
In the days that I have left
I will pass through many more
Much to my surprise, looking forward into life
I know I’ll always have
One Love
