Love Takes the Place

 

When love takes the place of passion

you’ll step back and step out of fashion

when loves starts replacing, the facade you been makin

your old world will come down crashin

 

When love takes the place of mystery

sheds a light on your old life for you to see

when you step aside, of your foolish pride

you’ll finally understand history

and it’s not what you thought it would be

you got caught, with your heart up your sleeve, thankfully

 

When love takes the place of a troubled mind

you’ll scurry and hurry home double-time

when your hear is kept

from those foolish and inept

you’ll finally appreciate sunshine

 

And it’s not what you thought it would be

you got caught, with your heart up your sleeve, thankfully

now you’re drifting like a fool, next to me.
