You Are Love Songtext
von Tom Paxton

You are the light in children′s eyes
You are the hope that never dies
You are all the best in me
And you forgive the rest in me

You are courage wrapped in grace
You are victory's laughing face
You are Noah′s returning dove
You are love

You are the welcome kiss of peace
You are the joy of sweet release
You are the mischievous at play
You are the end of summer's day

You are the soul who is my soul
You are the half that makes me whole
You are Noah's returning dove
You are love


Once the only word I knew was I, I, I
Nothing mattered but myself alone
Still a voice within me whispered why? Why? Why?
Why must you keep struggling on your own?
What an endless hill I tried to climb
When you were there to help me all the time

You are the garden where I walk
You are the quiet while I talk
You are the comforting caress
You are the end of emptiness

You are the joy I longed to know
You are the flower in the snow
You are Noah′s returning dove
You are love

Once the only word I knew was I, I, I
Nothing mattered but myself alone
Still a voice within me whispered why? Why? Why?
Why must you keep struggling on your own?
What an endless hill I tried to climb
When you were there to help me all the time

You are the garden where I walk
You are the quiet while I talk
You are the comforting caress
You are the end of emptiness


You are the joy I longed to know
You are the flower in the snow
You are Noah′s returning dove
You are love
You are Noah's returning dove
You are love
