If love were a word,
we’d never speak
If love were a sword,
we’d never fight
For if we ever did either,
all the world
would probably disappear
If love were a tear,
we’d never cry---
we’d just keep it all inside
And while I’m not condoning,
it’s all we’ve known, I fear
If love were a word,
it wouldn’t be ’no’,
and it damn sure wouldn’t be ’goodbye’
If love were a sword,
we’d only fight…
to try to stay
alive
If love were a day,
it wouldn’t be…
last Saturday,
is what I believe
If love were so kind
it wouldn’t be…
the kind of thing
to let
you leave
If love were a word,
we’d never speak
Well, we now haven’t spoken for days
But anyways,
love is perhaps
all in itself…
as I’m all alone, I fear
Love is a tear,
love is a tear,
and we’ve
just
disappeared.
