the great love

oh it's a great love

a great love now, i say.

when it is.

when it can be.

what do i know. i wrap myself in it

and cloak myself in you and close my eyes

and sweep away.

but if and when and why you leave

happens tomorrow i can be okay.

because it's okay. it's okay now, i'll say.

when it is, when it can be, what do i know.

and i'll blanket myself in that 

and hide myself in all that is not you

and close my eyes and sweep away.
