learn to love

learn to love

let me just say this aloud
i want it to all stop now
my pretending and my closed heart
are giving way for something to start

it's something that i've always wanted
an ability to use undaunted
you see it nourishes and it feeds
and it's something the world really needs

i'm ready to learn to love
and step up out of this hole
i'm ready to learn to love
every single person every single soul

don't think it's so outrageous
it's been done throughout the ages
by people with hearts that are 12 feet high
if they can love like that then so can i

i'll do it without any anger
i'll do it without any fear
i'll do it without expecting
any rewards to appear
