ONE THING
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.
It’s as radiant as a night full of stars, it’s the reason that Venus teases
Mars, a singer is the words of his song, it’s the healing not the wound
that leaves the scars, despite heartaches breakdowns and blunders, the
sky still sends rain when it thunders, now I move in a fresher world,
and my woman is an eyeful of wonders.
Oh when life feels like it’s living you, there’s only one thing that can
pull you thru, that’s love, love, only love.
It’s the rock and the root of the dreaming, it’s where sunlight and soul
just come streaming, it’s as soft as the world is hard, and the heart is
with mystic rapture teeming, and now rhyme outweighs hollow reason,
and any feeling but joy is marked treason, and even darkness can wring
out some light, for this is the prize of the season.
Oh when every color in your painting is blue, there’s always one thing
that will pull you thru, that’s love, love, only love.
Lost in the dreamer or lost in the dream, lost in the heat or lost in the
steam, lost in the doing or lost in the done, wish upon a star or
burning like the sun, drink from the river medicine of days, find the
path where tomorrow plays, die with an angel and live like a soul, give
pain the dross and love control.
It could stop the four horsemen in their tracks, it could make
mansions out of shacks, it could make the moon a pearl around your
neck, make miracles common fantasies facts, you’ll taste the blood in
the wine, you’ll stop searching the skies for a sign, you’ll know that
now is the meaning, the passion of love’s lust is mine.
When everything feels wrong no matter what you do, there’s always
one thing that will pull you thru, that’s love, love, only love.
