If we only have love |
|
Then tomorrow will dawn |
|
And the days of our years |
|
Will rise on that morn |
|
If we only have love |
|
To embrace without fears |
|
We will kiss with our eyes |
|
We will sleep without tears |
|
If we only have love |
|
With our arms open wide |
|
Then the young and the old |
|
Will stand at our side |
|
If we only have love |
|
Love that's falling like rain |
|
Then the parched desert earth |
|
Will grow green again |
|
If we only have love |
|
For the hymn that we shout |
|
For the song that we sing |
|
Then we'll have a way out |
|
If we only have love |
|
We can reach those in pain |
|
We can heal all our wounds |
|
We can use our own names |
|
If we only have love |
|
We can melt all the guns |
|
And then give the new world |
|
To our daughters and sons |
|
If we only have love |
|
Then Jerusalem stands |
|
And then death has no shadow |
|
There are no foreign lands |
|
If we only have love |
|
We will never bow down |
|
We'll be tall as the pines |
|
Neither heroes nor clowns |
|
If we only have love |
|
Then we'll only be men |
|
And we'll drink from the Grail |
|
To be born once again |
|
Then with nothing at all |
|
But the little we are |
|
We'll have conquered all time |
|
All space, the sun, and the stars |
