lyrics

We still go into the love we’ve known
But not the love we want
Fighting the space of the great unknown
For what we thought we might want

And love is waiting for you
Unchanged, a stranger till it holds you

Love is the fabric in which we’re born
To wrap us as we emerge
Worn in the world as the cloth we bear
Both shield or sword or which came first

Is love still waiting you
It’s changed, you recognize what holds you

Born to the roots of our family trees
Where all our ancestors converge
Holding the strings of our human ways
So life becomes where they converge

And love is waiting for you
Unchanged, a stranger till it holds you
Is love still waiting you
It’s changed, you recognize what holds you
