Jethro Tull Three Loves, Three
[John 21: 15-17]
Call it what you will; I just need to hear it
Tell me, fill the night; blow warm breath to cheer it
It's not for me that I ask sweet reassurance
It's for you to see, to see love's firm endurance
It's not for me that I ask sweet reassurance
It's for you to see, to see the three loves, three
Cold lambs are stirring on the gentler edge of dawn
Good shepherds watching: alert, they linger on
Long after sun's up on just another day
And night's dark whispers have had their say
Long after sun's up on just another day
It's for you to see, to see the three loves, three
Be it love of spirit, of brothers, lovers, sons
Or blood-heat emotion, burning lava, bright it runs
I'll take what's offered, made bold and manifest
Remember me, long gone, long gone to rest
I'll take what's offered, made bold and manifest
It's for you to see, to see the three loves, three
Three loves, three. Three loves, three
