Love Is The Answer |
LyricsLOVE IS THE ANSWERWords & Music by Joy Flanakin ©Joy Flanakin VERSE 1 In a world so full of tears I pretend to hold you near How I wish you were still here VERSE 2 In a world so full of crime A gunman took what once was mine Now it happens all the time PRE-CHORUS In my memories You're safe in my arms And life seems so beautiful But I know that right outside The bullets fly and mothers cry CHORUS No more killing No one wins Will this madness Ever end God please give us The love you possess When will we learn That love is the answer VERSE 3 When the dark clouds do appear I pretend that you are here And I can tell you, you were loved BREAK PRE-CHORUS In my memories You're safe in my arms And life seems so beautiful But I know that right outside The bullets fly and mothers cry CHORUS Please no more killing No one wins Will this madness Ever end God please give us The love you possess When will we learn That love is the answer VERSE 4 You were never given the chance To grow into the man That I knew that you'd become My beautiful son |
