Where Is The Love

Love, love, love Love, love, love Love, love, love We used to gather under the wisdom tree Stories and laughter, souls flying free But now, these gatherings are far and few Hearts bruised and battered, trust split in two Family tables once echoes of joy Now silent meals, no smiles to deploy How did we lose that hand-holding tight? The warmth that turned our darkest nights so bright Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love In our towns, where neighbors once were kin Walls now rise without, and turmoil brews within We pass by without a nod or smile Each one in their world, mile after mile And what of lovers, unions that sparkle with dreams? Now not much as it seems Where went the promises, the laughter, and the dance? When did we stop giving love a chance? Let's look within, for the change begins at heart Heal the self, to piece the whole apart It's in the forgiveness, in the tender care In the moments we that choose to stop and share Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love When we can spread love We can spread peace It starts with a greeting of peace, a simple gesture of peace With the giving of thanks, letting old hurts cease In the hugs we share, the stories we tell In the bonds we repair, letting love excel For love is a legacy, passed hand to hand A treasure that flows far beyond what we planned Let's bring a real love back, in our hearts let it dwell For in our hearts resides the love's timeless well There is the love There is the love There is the love There is the love Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love Back to the roots, where the love was born In every dawn, in every morn Re-ignite the fire, let kindness lead the way Where is the love? It's here, let's let it stay Love, love, love Love, love, love Love, love, love
