lyrics

when we were born
didn't know what love was
just crying out and your mother came
did what a mother does

and she wrapped you in a blanket
and she held you in her arms
whispered to you sweetly
protected you from harm

it didn't take long for you to belong to love

was it morai and Venus who conspired
said all will find love
before their light expires
I've never known the feeling
of not knowing and needing love

I was given this flame early
given more than enough

it didn't take long before I belonged to love

I don't want to live without it
it's a piece of who I am
if it ever leaves ill follow
til I find it again

I see a world refracted by it's
warm and tender lens
I don't ever want it to leave

have you ever given it
to one who's never felt its touch
they never knew they needed it
then they couldn't get enough

then they run into your arms
and they give it back to you
and fill you up like the first time
did you feel renewed

it didn't take long for you to belong to love
