Testo This is Love - Mary Chapin Carpenter
Testo della canzone This is Love (Mary Chapin Carpenter), tratta dall'album One Night Lonely (Live)
If you ever need, to hear a voice
In the middle, of the night
When it seems so black, outside
That you can't remember light
Ever shone, on you or the ones you love
In this, or another lifetime
And the voice you need to hear
Is the true, and the trusted kind
With a soft familiar rhythm
In these swirling unsure times
When the waves are lapping
In and you're not sure, you can swim
Here's the lifeline
If you ever need to feel a hand, take up your own
When you least expect, but want it
More than you've ever known
Baby, here's that hand and baby
Here's my voice, that's calling
This is love
All it ever was and will be
This is love
If you ever need some proof
That time can heal your wounds
Just step inside my heart
And walk around these rooms
Where the shadows used to be
You can feel as well as see
How peace can hover
The time's been here to fix
What's broken with its power
The love that smashed us both to bits
Spent its last few hours, calling out your name
I thought this is the kind of pain
From which we don't recover
I'm standing here now
With my heart held out to you
You would've thought a miracle
Was all that got us through
Baby, all I know, all I know is
I'm still standing
This is love
All it ever was and will be
This is love
Standing up for you
Standing up for me
And I see you still
And there's this catch in my throat
And I swallow hard till it leaves me
There's nothing, in this world
That can change, what we know
Still, I know, I am here, if you ever need me
This is love
And if you ever think of me
Let it be around twilight
When the world, has settled down
And the last round of sunlight, is waning in the sky
As you sit and watch the night, descending
A car will pass out front, with lovers at the wheel
A dog will bark, out back
And children's voices, peal over and under the air
You've been there, lost in the remembering
If you ever wish for things
That are only in the past
Just remember, that the wrong things
Aren't supposed to last
It's over and done
And the rest is gonna come
When you let it
And this is love
All that ever was and will be
This is love
When you let it
If you let it now
This is love
All that ever was and can be
This is love
