Love Will Come to You

Guess I wasn't the best one to ask

Me myself with my face pressed

Up against love's glass

To see the shiny toy I've been hoping for

The one I never could afford

The wide world spins and spits turmoil

And the nations toil for peace

But the paws of fear upon your chest

Only love can soothe that beast

And my words are paper tigers

No match for the predators of pain inside her

I say love will come to you

Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true

As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through

Where there's now one there will be two

I was born under the sign of cancer

(Love will come to you)

Like brushing cloth I smooth the wrinkles for an answer

(Love will come)

I'm always closing my eyes and wishing I'm fine

(I close my eyes and wish you fine)

Even though I know I'm not this time

(Even though I know your not this time)

I say love will come to you

Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true

As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through

Where there's now one there will be two

Dodging your memories a field of knives

Always on the outside looking in on other's lives

I say love will come to you

Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true

As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through

(I have offered up to you)

Where there's now one there will be two

And I wish her insight to battle love's blindness

Strength from the milk of human kindness

A safe place for all the pieces that scattered

Learn to pretend there's more than love that matters
