The book of love
that sacred place
Where we walk tall
or in disgrace
Who tills the ground
on which we tread
Who gives us all
our daily bread
The spirit woken
from its sleep
The demon stirring
from the deep
Whose gates at dawn
we all must pass
The last one first
The first one last
Whose words
must be both
black and white
Whose music
shall be
day and night
The moon tells us
of the sun
Our voices soothe
so far apart
These pages
are the book of love
If we were born
just to succeed
If life was meant
to be a choice
For neither
happiness or greed
if you can't walk
You always run
Away from anyone
Yes you will
And if we learn
to take our time
As though
each moment
is a treasure
That's not so hard to find
when you are free
then suddenly
There's room
for everyone
yes there is
The book of love
The world of dreams
Those shadows
fall upon us all
and send our
weary eyes to sleep
but when you wake
Your heart will make
some room
for everyone
She's good to me
there's nothing
you should fear
She's good to me
I'll always be
right here
Her tenderness
her heart
is where I live
and what you ask
Is what I'll give
if we were born
just to succeed
If life was meant
to be a choice
For all the
happiness and greed
if you can't walk
You'll always run
Away from anyone
Yes you will
And if we learn
to take our time
As though
each moment
is a treasure
That's not
so hard to find
when you are free
Then suddenly
There's room
for everyone
yes there is
The book of love
The world of dreams
Those shadows
fall upon us all
and send our
weary eyes to sleep
but when you wake
Your heart will make
some room
for everyone
