Lyrics

Love (2018)

[Verse 1]

Soothe me, cool my fever high

Release my tears and let me cry

I need it so much

It makes you want to get down crawl like a beggar

For its touch

And all the while

It's free as air

Like plants, the medicine is everywhere

[Chorus]

Love

Love

Love

[Verse 2]

We crave it so badly

Makes you want to laugh out loud when you receive it

And gobble it like candy

We think it's easy

Sometimes it's easy

But it's not easy

You're going to break down and cry

We're only here for a season of sunlight

And if you're wondering why

Why

[Chorus]

Love

Love

Love

[Verse 3]

The price that we pay

When evil walks the planet

And love is crushed like clay

When day breaks, hopes

Have come and gone

Just love yourself

And pass it on

[Chorus]

Love

Love

Love
