Love – self-flowing
Let her be free of coaxing,
Whom you love ardently.
To you if she returns,
She is then only yours.
Love is not a demandable
commodity. Be worthwhile.

To Know Him Is To Love Him (feat. Dolly Parton & Linda Ronstadt)
(Phil Spector)
To know, know, know him
Is to love, love, love him
Just to see him smile
Makes my life worthwhile
To know, know, know him
Is to love, love, love him, and I do.
I'll be good to him
I'll bring love too him
Everyone says there'll come a day
when I'll walk alongside of him.
Yes, just to know him
is to love, love, love him, and I do.
Why can't he see
How blind can he be
Someday he will see
That he was meant for me. oh, ah

Professed Love
Despite
your professed
love for me.
You do not have
what it takes
to be with me.
You must love
me ardently,
above all else,
for eternity.
Your on again off again
commitment cannot sustain.
Your lethargic esoteric resolutions
to constantly go or remain.
Reek of a countenance
lacking the impetus
to love ardently.
Independently attenuated requisites
stridently expressed in arbitration
lack filigree delicate verisimilitude
denoting an inarticulate sincerity.
This perihelion passion
encroaches upon zenith
isthmus stinging tornadoes
frenzied intense devastation.

Receiving means repaying
Love of a woman
Is not demandable
It has to spring.
You can pursue
Till you succeed.
Her rejection will die
And tolerance will grow;
It is the sign of her love.
It itself is the sign
Of reciprocation.

Ill Never Set You Free
Theres nothing I can say
Theres nothing I can do
To show you the love
That I got for you
Theres nothing in this world
That could ever take your place
When I look into your eyes
I see a sweet face
Ill never set you free
till you give your love to me
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
And I need you (Ill never set, set you free)
Yes I want you (Ill never set, set you free)
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
Will you open up your heart
So love could make a start
I know that if you do
Dreams will come true
Ill never set you free
till you give your love to me
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
And I need you (Ill never set, set you free)
Yes I want you (Ill never set, set you free)
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
Ill never set you free
till you give your love to me
Theres nothing you can do
To stop my love for you
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
And I need you (Ill never set, set you free)
Yes I want you (Ill never set, set you free)
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)

Set It Free
I can see the rain,
Come into my room again.
Broken window pane,
Now reminds me Im alive.
Could it be right,
Givin up, my darlin?
Ill wait for you now,
To remind me why Ive gone.
How I love to write,
Songs that have no answers.
Oh, theres nothin on my mind,
That I want to let go of.
Letting it go on pretendin,
Everything has its way of endin.
And Im a loner,
The way I should be.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
Can I be free?
(instrumental)
Still its gotta rain,
Wonder when Ill see a change in weather.
Somethins gettin tangled up again,
And I cant find an end.
Cant let it go on returnin,
Ive given everything that the harlequin boy can find.
And Im tired of trying,
Id rather leave than tell lies.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
Youll be free.
Youll be free my love to fly,
Free to be what I cant face.
In love again,
Set it free.
Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.
Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.

Lots Of Love
lots of love out there
buy one take one
if you want to buy
even all of them
but priceless love
knows no price
it takes sacrifice
a love freely given
is the only true love
we can have and
cherish and keep
maybe even forever
and ever forever
i can taste it
and return it
but surely i
will miss it
because it is true love
that i cannot buy
that makes my heart full
it is the love that i set free
and freely it is the same love
that returns to worship me

We Can Be
Talk with me
I believe that we can find a tomorrow
Lend to me and I will try to borrow
I can see you and me
Love is free
We can be free
Sing with me
Melodies that soar as high as a swallow
I can lead the way if you will follow
I can see you and me
Love is free
We can be free
You show me
Words of beauty that describe your love
Let me know the things that you are sure of
I can see you and me
Love is free
We can be free
You know me
Im as reckless as a mountain stream
Careless as a could-be, someday dream
I can see you and me
Love is free
We can be free

Love is Myself
You told, love hurts
Hurt it might
I still love ‘coz
I love love
You told, life betrays
Betrey it might
Yet I care not ‘coz
I am myself
Love is no trade
Don’t trade in love
Don’t ever love
To get joy back
Love is no commodity
Don’t buy and sell
Don’t ever love
To get love back
What is love, then,
Love my being
Love is myself
Love is my life

Think Im In Love
(l. taylor)
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
He calls me up
He says
Id like to see you
I hear his voice
And its hard to say no
Its always so good
Each time that Im with him
My head says watch out
But my heart always gives in
And Im caught in the game again
cause after he leaves
Im never the same again
I just got me to blame again
Its easy to see he wants to be free
I can never win
Oh, but wouldnt you know it
I think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
He says as he leaves
We both gotta be free now
I turn with a smile and I say
Dont worry bout me now
But deep down inside
I wish he could care for
A heart that would love him
But thats not what hes there for
And Im caught in the game again
cause after he leaves
Im never the same again
I just got me to blame again
Its easy to see he wants to be free
I can never win
Oh, but wouldnt you know it
I think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Im never the same again
I can never win
Oh, wouldnt you know it
I think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love
Think Im in love again
Think Im in love, think Im in love

Sometimes With One I Love
SOMETIMES with one I love, I fill myself with rage, for fear I effuse
unreturn'd love;
But now I think there is no unreturn'd love--the pay is certain, one
way or another;
(I loved a certain person ardently, and my love was not return'd;
Yet out of that, I have written these songs.)

The Love Poem
Love is understanding
Love is compromise
Love is generosity
Love is sacrifice
Love does not discriminate
Love is free of charge
Love is the solution
Love is who we are
Love is universal
Love is heaven sent
Love was fastened to the cross
Love's greatest testament
Love is triumphant
Love is somersaults
Love is compassion
Love is free of fault
Love is forgiveness
Love offers a hand
Love is eternal
Love is His command

Hard As Love
Well I hear that you were looking out to hunt me down
And I guess you're used to having everything you want
But you know that love can be as hard as sticks and stones
I tell you nothing else can be as hard as love can
Well I hear you've got my number and you want my name
I'm a stream of noughts and crosses in your R.A.M
But you know that love can be as hard as algebra
Baby nothing else has ever been as hard as love
Hard as love
Well I hear that you were lookin out to take me home
And I hear that you can handle it and you're not scared
Have you heard about the pictures on my bedroom wall?...
Baby nothin else has ever been as hard as love
Well it makes you hungry and it makes you high
It makes you suffer and it makes you cry
But it's all worthwhile
It makes you humble and it makes you crawl
It makes you tremble and it makes you fall
But it's all worthwhile
It makes you desperate and it makes you dream
It makes you dangerous and it makes you scream
But it's all worthwhile
Just lie back and smile.......
(They will continue to love you
even though the rest of the world hates you...)
It makes you hungry and it makes you high
It makes you suffer and it makes you cry
It makes you panic and it makes you vain
It makes you primitive.....Sick inside
It makes you angry it makes you blind
It makes you guilty and it makes you lie
Tied up and beaten
Spat out and eaten
Suicidal
NOTHIN'S EVER BEEN AS HARD
Well I hear that you were looking out to change my faith
You can bash me with your book of words,
Hammer me down!
But you know that love can be as hard as six inch nails
Baby nothing else has ever been as hard as love
Hard as love
Hard as love

An ardent wish for others
How ardently, now, I wish for others
what I –alas too late – wish -
would have wished - for my own self,
and maybe, for my parents too:
some time in life – it would depend on you –
but not too late, too late –
to sit down together -
each parent, each child, individually –
and maybe with a few days ‘thinking time’ beforehand -
and say – you could take this in turns –
‘Ask me all the questions
which you never, until now, thought to ask...
ask me all the questions
which you never liked or dared to ask...
and I shall answer you…’
and if it goes well (as I pray it will)
you might even incorporate this
into a yearly family occasion:
done with humour and with love;
this is what I wish for you
as ardently as I would have
wished it for myself;
for this is my regret,
for myself; and perhaps, for them..

Kissed
Kiss me
Your magic
That makes my heart smile.
But do not miss me
When our love's blown out to sea.
Because now our lives
Have been worthwhile.
Whatever happens
We are free.

Be Free With Your Love
Be free with your love
Free with your love
Be free with your love
Free with your love
Two young babes in a foreign land
Draw no milk from the dusty sand
Close heir eyes from the night so cold
Feel the love in their mothers hold
Two old men on their different shores
Stretch the world with their tug of war
Tension pulls on a tightening cord
Spread your love over mans discord
Lifes your reward
So sing it to your lord
Be free with your love
Free with your love
Be free with your love
Free with your love
Science stands on threshold of life
Man could be cut by a blow of its knife
Time to live by a new resolution
In the spirit of loves evolution
Two young girls shining in the sun
Feel your pain but they dance for everyone
Beauty lives in their innocent glow
Things so dear should be free to let grow
So let your heart flow
And sing it to your soul
Be free with your love
Free with your love
Now baby
Be free wih your love
Free with your love
Two young girls shining in the sun
Feel your pain but they dance for everyone
Be free with your love

Ballade Of Autumn
We built a castle in the air,
In summer weather, you and I,
The wind and sun were in your hair, -
Gold hair against a sapphire sky:
When Autumn came, with leaves that fly
Before the storm, across the plain,
You fled from me, with scarce a sigh -
My Love returns no more again!
The windy lights of Autumn flare:
I watch the moonlit sails go by;
I marvel how men toil and fare,
The weary business that they ply!
Their voyaging is vanity,
And fairy gold is all their gain,
And all the winds of winter cry,
'My Love returns no more again!'
Here, in my castle of Despair,
I sit alone with memory;
The wind-fed wolf has left his lair,
To keep the outcast company.
The brooding owl he hoots hard by,
The hare shall kindle on thy hearth-stane,
The Rhymer's soothest prophecy,--
My Love returns no more again!
ENVOY.
Lady, my home until I die
Is here, where youth and hope were slain:
They flit, the ghosts of our July,
My Love returns no more again!

Love Is The Healer (Album Version)
So many times in my life
I've been alone, left alone
Heart broken and
Turned around
I find myself
Crying in the night time
Dying out loud
In the night i sleeplessly
Wake up
From a dream that's
Tormenting me
I, i, i, i, i gotta get help
Oh, yeah
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Come heal me
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Set me free
Late at night i was afraid
And i tried to turn away
I was afraid to face
What in-evil-it-able is
Say you know the way
To find true freedom
Can you save yourself
From the pain you're feeling
Something in my head
That you're dreaming
That the angels said
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Come heal me
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Set me free
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Come heal me
Love is the healer
Love is the healer
Set me free
I am on a mission, a mission of love
I am on a mission, a mission of love
I am on a mission, a mission of love
I am on a mission, a mission of love
I am on a mission, a mission of love
Love...is the healer
Love is the healer
Come as a healer
Set me free
Love is the healer
Come as a healer
Set me free
Love is the healer
Come as a healer
Set me free
Love is the healer
Come as a healer
Set me free
Do you know the way to love
Do you know the place of love
Do you know what love
Can do
Do you know what
It'll do for you
