Still Believe in Love

entry picture

I'm banished for life to the childrens table

The way grown-ups talk gives me strife

I placed all my stock in fairy tales and fables

And I still believe in love

Like a child does

 

I don't have big face in the family circles

I can't dole out jobs or advice

And talk about money

I just find distasteful

Cause I still believe in love

Like a child does

 

One day this old world

Will be ruled by lovers

And we'll look back and laugh...look back and laugh

And we with the love bites will come out of the covers

As the world beats time

And begs us to dance

 

I've got no time for anything but love songs

I never have... never will

That's just my way of keeping my heart strong

Cause I still believe in love

Still believe in love

Still believe in love

Like a child does

thank you for writing

One day this old world

Will be ruled by lovers

I am all in with you at the children's table
