Love

Me and Love have been playin’ hide and seek for years

Waitin’ for that moment where I open the closet door and,

Love looks at me suspiciously, then we both smile

And I say “I found you”

But I haven’t quite found Love yet

You see, Love is smart, unique, quick

And as time ticks Love just sits

Waiting for me to find Love

But love is too good

And I have to get better

And every time I submit

Where Love hides weighs down on me like a bag of bricks

I search high and low, in every branch lined with sticks

But once again Love is unique

Never in the same place

Love is everywhere

Never seen like the air

But when the game is over you can’t help but stare

Love’s sight is too much to bear

Love is so beautiful; you want to hold Love in your arms, in your heart, in your soul

But you can’t, unless you win the game

So love leaves you with a hole

And when Love won’t play

There’s no purpose to the day

All you do is sit at the window and sway

Thinking of the perfect thing to say when Love finally comes your way

And there’s nowhere left to hide when we play

And I open the closet door

And I look at Love suspiciously, then we both smile

And Love says “you found me.”
