There I was a wandering
on a long and lonesome day
And I thought to myself
Where is the love I seek?
I've sought it high, and sought it low..
But never have I seen..
And then a stranger passing by
did throw a rose to me
For you, they said
this simple gift
to show you that out there
are people just like us you see
who need a some love and care
in the silence that passed with them
I finally found the truth
The love we seek is ours to give
my mirror held my find
for to give a word
to be so kind
costs nothing but your time
to give a smile
is something anyone can do
why hoard your cares
why shutter your affection
we board the doors to our souls
for fear of being burned
and then pine our loss of sunshine
Love is free
