Lyrics
Understanding Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A sword of sorrow pierced your soul
You carried on
It was a cruel letting go
You carried on
Chorus:
Understanding love, understanding love
Understanding love, understanding love
There are no easy answers here
I carry on
I come to you to still the fear
I carry on
(Chorus)
Rock me in your arms tonight
A banished child of Eve
I need to feel your courage
Mother Mary, Mother Mary
Mother me
There are no easy answers here
I carry on
I come to you to still the fear
I carry on
(Chorus...)
