Only Love

Song lyric for an up-tempo, folk-rock style tune about how love will save the world

————

Storm clouds darken 'cross this land

Events we don't understand

Some think that the end's at hand

That we're history


There's prejudice, bias, hate

Barbarians at the gate

We face an uncertain fate

Unfilled destiny


Dragged down by the weight of our fears

Gotta rise above

The answer we need is clear

It's compassion and love


Only love will stop the hate

Only love will light our way

Only love will save the day

Only love

Only love


There's fake news, lies and deceit

And protests out in the street

But love can turn sure defeat

Into victory


Well, violence and anger abound

People filled with rage

But this world can be turned around

Love will write a new page


Only love will stop the hate

Only love will light our way

Only love will save the day

Only love


Only love will heal our pain

Only love will end the rain

Only love will make things plain

Only love

Only love

Only love


[musical interlude]


Now each one of us here and now's

Gotta make a choice

To stand up and say love's our vow

Come on, raise your voice


Only love will stop the hate

Only love will light our way

Only love will save the day

Only love


Only love will heal our pain

Only love will end the rain

Only love will make things plain

Only love


Only love will stop the hate

Only love will light our way

Only love will save the day

Only love

Only love
