Swords and pens and tears and blood
|
Emotion, demotion and skin that's so tough
|
If I can live through this then that is enough
|
Learn and earn devotion and trust
|
|
|
Love is the subject and nothin' else nothin' else
|
Life is the course love is the subject
|
Notes and jokes and follies so cruel
|
Elation, cessation and pain, that's the rule
|
Find me later face down in the pool
|
Prop me up for lesson number two
|
|
|
I eat and sleep and culture my person
|
Measure up to the yardstick she's using
|
Punch drunk stars like sparks in my vision
|
Paradise is something inhuman when
|
|
|
Love is the subject and nothin' else nothin' else
|
|
|
So much of this is quarrel
|
Clenching of the teeth
|
It's stormy on the surface
|
Let me underneath
|
|
|
Walk and talk and give up and talk on
|
My body hangs 'round this heart like a jacket
|
My stomach sinks lower preparing for worry
|
I'm so ready to feel good in a hurry when
|
|
|
Love is the subject and nothin' else nothin' else
|
Life is the course love is the subject
|

Love Is The Subject
