And the love we all need
Was running hard to be free
It got caught up in the forest
By the branches on the trees
By the creatures of the daylight
And the beasts of the night.
Then the mountains and the rivers
Took their turn on its lean
It went stumbling down the hill side
Where it landed on its knees, on its knees,
On its knees and see!
And the love we all need
Once we landed from its speed
We adore it and abused it
Till it brought us to our knees,
To our knees, to our knees!
