L.O.V.E
Featuring Molly Apirana
Have you ever felt like you wouldn’t know love if it tapped you on the shoulder? What is Love? We strive to attain it and there are so many vast ways to describe it. This is a bitter reflection of what its said to be and what it actually is. I tried to address it as broadly as it is on the outside as possible and then return internally to what it is there. Relationships, Sex, Religion and War – are these pillars of representatives of love?.. In this song I say “I don’t think so.” The one thing I’m certain of although I can’t claim to know a lot about what it is, is that It lives inside us. I believe in Love even when there is lack of evidence around to support its existence. I wrote this song years ago, before I started a family. I was confused and I wrote this song. I still love the song for what it says and where it came from.

The Lyrics
Intro
Give me love
and I’ll never look back again
into motion I go devotion I spend
hoping something unfolds
what is Love?
Verse 1
Some say its just a word now tell me,
does it sound absurd
if I’m afraid to say it.
If its just a word,
I must of heard it before
and seen how much it can hurt.
I been touched
now who believes in love
at first sight?
Na I believe it is lust
well that’s my gut feeling
and I see it like trust.
Give it freely and it ain’t worth dealing.
Its hard work and you gotta earn it.
I love you, I write it down and burn it.
I just gotta get it out I’m nervous.
Do I even deserve it?
My love
if I were for money I’d be worthless.
I got a heart of gold,
some don’t want a bar of it, I know.
Chorus
L O V E
they’re just letters I know
but they feed me
I hope one day
love is gonna free me
there’s love in us all
it never meant to be easy no.
Give me love
and I’ll never look back again.
Verse 2
Without love in your life
what you got to live for
I know you gotta think twice
you gotta think sometimes
even love can die.
Love is like chance
roll of the dice if it gonna treat you right
could love swallow a lie
could love steal from your side
love is within
I heard you gotta make love
to create a new life outta skin
but I know a baby been born before
without a glimmer or any in sight
money doesn’t buy you happiness
but at least it gets you dinner
some place to sleep at night
see the signs
read between the lines
love is it the reason behind
us being stupid sometimes
and is it love that can make you blind
is it something in your eyes
or something on your mind.
Well I L O V E
(Chorus)
Verse 3
Now if I’m a fighter,
and I believe
its apart of this bleeding heart
and it speaks through art
and so in god we trust.
We make each other cross
and whose wrong through
the interpretations
of his son and his followers?
I know theirs only one love
only one we gotta share with someone
we gotta share what we got
but we bomb each other
and break each others hearts
take each others power off em
and leave em in the dark
even rob em
wheres the love gone
I don’t see it no more
its in the bottom of my heart
its in our soldiers
when we send em to war
fighting for what we adore
killing like we don’t care
I got a feeling that it ain’t in the air
I got a feeling that I wanna share
What is love? Dunno?
Then what can make of this then.
It goes L O V E.
(chorus)
