LOVE IS BORN


You can catch a lobster in the ocean
That’s almost too delicious to consume
Extract the oils from the petals
To make a sweet and delicate perfume

You can even direct the lightning 
And utilize the power of the sun
You can do most anything you want to
The capable can do it all but one

~~~*Chorus*~~~
You can’t create love
No matter what you do
Intertwining souls
Is not up to you
It’s your essence clearly exposed
You can attempt to make it happen
But you won’t be even close
It will drive you mad
It will leave you torn
You can’t create love
Because love 
Is born
~~*~~

You can pluck the ripened fruit of a grape vine
Age a wine that you feel sinful to drink
Graft a rose bush until it’s so exquisite
Master gardeners won’t know what to think

You can find yourself a precious emerald
The river sands may bear you platinum
Such treasures are laced with our existence
The determined can find them all but one

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
You can't find love, It must find you
Though there are props and substitutes
You hold out, for when it comes
You'll give up everything for love
It's raw truth in holy form
You can't fake love
Love is Born
~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~
You can’t create love
No matter what you do
Intertwining souls
Is not up to you
It’s your essence clearly exposed
You can attempt to make it happen
But you won’t be even close
It will drive you mad
It will leave you torn
You can’t create love
Because love 
Is born
~~*~~
