Flawless light in a darkening air alone and shining there Love will not elude you, love is simple I worship this tenacity and the beautiful struggle we're in Love will not elude us, love is simple Be sure to know that all in love is ours That love is a philosophy, is simple I am calm in oblivion, calm as I ever have been Love will not elude me, love is simple Be sure to know that all in love is ours, is ours That all in love is ours That love is a philosophy, is simple And ours
