Love Lives On - Bruce Guthro
I have sailed across the ocean wide
Walked upon the desert sand
Watched the human spirit fly and fall
I've wrestled with my demons deep
I've fought the devil hand in hand
Walked the road to easy street then
Gave it all away
I have chased my rainbows
Found my gold
Buried deep beneath the words
I once heard a soldier pray
All I want is peace on earth
I brought a child in to this world
I teach him to be free and strong
I got to look in to his eyes to know
That love lives on
So they say
It's the one thing
We can not afford not to give away
Oh love lives on
So it is told
Worlds will rise and
Fall and come and go
But love lives on
I have watched
My brothers laid to rest
Felt their blood rush
Through my veins
Carried on with no regrets
And knew we'd some day meet again
I've hit the bottom and bounced back
To only rise up twice as strong
God only knows how I did that
God only knows indeed
I have looked in to an old mans heart
Felt the kindness there within
Finally did I realize
Beauty lies beneath the skin
I've kissed the ground
From which I came
And some day will return again
For I am just a messenger you know
Love lives on
Or so they say
It's the one thing
We cannot afford not to give away
Oh love lives on
Love lives on
So it is told
Worlds will rise and fall and come and go
But loves lives on
Love lives on
Love lives on
