[Intro]
You can diagnosis darkness
And in the middle of night, that's alright
But the one that brings life
Can prescribe and distribute light
For the love of love
The life of life
For the hope of hope
For the light of light
For the love of love
For the life of life
For the death of death
For the light

[Chorus]
I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart you poured your love
If only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

[Verse 1]
Okay, I'm here for the healing, I'm here for the wholeness
I'm here for that feeling that the pit of my soul gets
With me and my loved one in the midst of the closeness
The barriers don't exist, I'm here for the nosis
I'm here for that medicine, ain't here for no pettiness
I no longer get energy from being competitive
Don't know if it's my second daughter, third baby on the way
Or if it's the fourth decade I met the other day
But I have zero energy at time for what ain't feeding me and mine
I don't cut people off, I redefine
I'm here for the village life, nobody leave the tribe
Here for that intimacy in me you see inside
I'm not here for your opinion, I'm here for your truth
I do hear ya, my face full of tears is the proof
I'm here now because nothing else is guaranteed
I'm trying to be here for the people that's here for me
[Chorus]
I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart you poured your love
If only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

[Verse 2]
Enter the world of meaning, the
Sacred, the reason, the
State of your being, the
Place of convening
They say seeing's believing
But that could be deceiving
Depending on which instrument does the receiving
The eye sees the form, the function, the allure, the seduction
Only the healthy heart knows the substance
Your vessel is oh so illustrious
But one day you're confronted with the fact it can only pour what's within
We know the art of truly living is learning how to die
We gon' paint this one vivid in the sky
To twinkle in your eye, the magic and the crackle in your voice
Your quotables attracted to the source, all I wanna be known for
My greatest virtue is that I learned from you
And loved you and served you
And that I belong to you, and when I long for you
I can say whatever I am and write songs for you
[Chorus]
I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart you poured your love
If only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

[Outro]
For the love of love
For the life of life
For the hope of hope
For the light of light
For the love of love
For the life of life
For the death of death
For the light
When you're gone
Be here when you're gone
