Love Is the Cure

[My first song of the Millenium]


Jeseppi ©1/3/2000

is there a place where one can hide
the sorrow this life brings
a quiet space to make repairs
popped a few heart strings
escaping into pleasures
never seem to work
is there a place
where one can go and heal

love is the cure for a broken heart
deeper the wound deeper the
love is the cure for a broken heart
arms wide nailed open
love is the cure for a broken heart

tried walking down by the sea
in the moonglow late at night
tried downloaded dirty jpg’s
while reading rumi by candle light
aint’ no quick solutions
to easy away the pain
i need a fix
a shot of novacain

love is the cure for a broken heart
deeper the wound deeper the
love is the cure for a broken heart
arms wide nailed open
love is th cure for a broken heart

centuries have come and gone
i’m still in a daze
did they invent the antidote
for this fainting love malaise
just enough to wake me
to sharpen through the blurr
some beatific vision just might occur

love is the cure for a broken heart
deeper the wound deeper the
love is the cure for a broken heart
arms wide nailed open
love is the cure for a broken heart

got no answers ‘cept the life i have lived
cs lewis’ final call
in his allegory of chivalry
love conquers all
sometimes love is courtly
sometimes it’s on the street
love in the battle
knows no defeat

love is the cure for a broken heart
deeper the wound deeper the
love is the cure for a broken heart
arms wide nailed open
love is the cure for a broken heart
