(PIANO INTRO)
if you want it, you can have it
`cause I know a few that`s got it
and I had it once but now it`s gone
if you`re a dreamer you can do it
`cause there`s really nothing` to it
and it doesn`t have to take too long
you won`t beat it, you won`t fight it
you can`t cheat it, you can`t hide it in your pocket
you won`t carry it home
if you`re a faker you won`t make it
or a taker you won`t take it
in a locket where your secret`s known
love, sweet love
love, sweet love
well I dreamed I drank with Jesus
and the told me all the reasons
He explained the powers of darkness and light
and he cried before a candle
as he thought of how we handle
the one feeling that just can`t be denied
love, sweet love
love, sweet love
oh, take me down where the water flows
Lord, take me now
strip me of all I know
and give me love, sweet love
give me love, sweet love
