Love is letting go,
that's what it's all about.
It's seed you have to sow
in furrows of your doubt.
It's wheat you go to reap
and harvest hundred-fold,
that while you were asleep
transfigured dust to gold.

Whenever I see you,
it's like sweet light falls on my eyes,
fresh and new.
Gladness swells my heart
like the sunrise.
Day or night, it's the same,
or when I only hear your name,
and I can't explain away
this feeling inside,
that you feel the same way
when you're by my side.

There was a boy
sent off to war
who fell in love
with everyone he saw,
went up well-armed,
helm, sword and shield,
himself to fight
on the body's field.
