What Is Love? Lyrics & Chords By Paleo

WHAT IS LOVE

girls, get in line
catch the bug. love's alright
it's waves from the window
as we walk by

boys, love is life
it is yours it is mine
love is endless
love is divine

words my father said to me

girls, love is cheap
it is cool. it's for keeps
until you lose it
or you get lost

boys, love is fine
it may be dumb but that shit's not blind
love is precious
but so is time

words my mother said to me

valentine the saint
he fell between the bars that held him
into true love
a tighter cage

for a blind jailkeepers daughter
he took an arrow in the chest
and was beaten bloody
and senseless

boys, eager as static
we pull fire alarms
but rue love cuz it's the ink there
that won't come off

and mother's milk their credit cards
to turn their babes into barbies
we can play with
and then discard

that's all she ever asked of me

so boys, light a candle
cast a shadow of a hook
into the water
and watch them dance

cuz they all want some pisces
when we take bites, we start to bleed
and while that's not wrong, girls
that's not right

it's just all that love was meant to be
