LYRICS
Who would have ever thought it’d turn into this
I almost turned right into your kiss
Ahhhhh….

A lady right from the start
Jumpstart my heart

Who could have known you’d bring on the bliss
With a kiss?

A lady right from the start
Jumpstart my heart

Turn to the East
Turn to the West
Turn to the one you love best

Where ever you may roam
Whichever way you go
Your heart is your home

Where ever you may start
Whatever you may know
Your home is in your heart

The love part

Is in your heart

Get shot in the heart
A love injection
Get shot in the heart
Spreading like an infection
Get shot in the heart

A love laced dart
Get lanced in the heart

LYRICS
Please
Wrap your arms around me
And, give me a lil’ squeeze
So I realize upon release
The loves around to see

Seize
Every moment
As if they’re all keys
To open the doors of happiness
Full of love and nothing less

Chorus
The more I get to know
The better the show
Such a delight
May it last all night

Lookie there
Smells in the air
Wafting through the breeze
And, I realize if I open my eyes
The loves around to see

Our bodies are love’s home
I feel it deep inside
Pounding of the heart
Start
Feeling it in the bone

Chorus

Repeat 1

The more I get to know
The better the show
Such a delight
May it last all night
Such a delight
To gain insight

It’s been a while since we’ve been together
Seems like it’s been just about forever
Hope you managed through the stormy weather

Whether it’s thick or thin
Feel my love within (x2)

If you’re feeling down on your luck
Just about ready to say, “What the *&$%!”
Pick the guitar up and start to pluck

No doubt
My love, you’ll never be without

From the first time I laid mind on you
I knew the epiphany was true
Then, it was plain and simple as to what to do

Keep my mind on you

Won with you

The third eye cast out a glance
On the essence of romance
Starting in essence an adrenaline dance
Heart struck with cupid’s lance

LYRICS
What do you say
We lay
Down our arms
And make love
Turn off the killing alarms
Be free of
Turn on getting turned on
Spawn
A lush crush

For sure
Make love, not war
Love more, more, more
Make love, not war

Hate hate negate
More love more more
Lay your love spoor
Make love not war

ABOUT THIS SONG
Make love, not war is an anti-war slogan commonly associated with the American counterculture of the 1960s. It was used primarily by those who were opposed to the Vietnam War, but has been invoked in other anti-war contexts since. The “make love” part of the slogan often referred to the practice of free love that was growing among the American youth who denounced marriage as a tool for those who supported war and favored the traditional capitalist culture.

The phrase’s origins are unclear; some credit Louis Abolafia. Radical activists Penelope and Franklin Rosemont helped to popularize the phrase by printing thousands of “Make Love, Not War” buttons at the Solidarity Bookshop in Chicago, Illinois and distributing them at the Mother’s Day Peace March in 1965. They were the first to print the slogan.

In April 1965, at a Vietnam demonstration in Eugene, Oregon, Diane Newell Meyer, then a senior at the University of Oregon, pinned a handwritten note on her sweater reading “Let’s make love, not war”, thus marking the beginning of the popularity of this phrase. A picture of Meyer wearing the slogan was printed in the Eugene Register-Guard and then a related article turned up in the New York Times on May 9, 1965. When the slogan was used in California in 1967, then Governor Ronald Reagan joked to protesters “Those guys [the protesters] look like they can’t make either of both”.

A heartfelt love song

When the sky turns shades of gray
From goose to slate

LYRICS
If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace

Come to me
I will come to you
Put our arms around each other…
Put our arms around each other
For at least a minute or two

If you wish war would disarm
You feel the environment sound the alarm
What’s you really need’s to inarm

Be bold told enfold
Please give me a squeeze

If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace
