[An Untested Hypothesis Suggesting That The Chemical [In Our Brains] By Which We Are Able To Experience The Sensation Of Being In Love Is The Same Chemical That Caused The "Big Bang" That Was The Birth Of The Accelerating Universe]
What is the light
That you have
Shining all around you?
Is it chemically derived?
Cause if it's natural
Something glowing from inside
Shining all around you
It's potential has arrived
Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the place that you're drawn to
Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the face that you're drawn to
What is the light
That you have
Shining all around you?
Is it chemically derived?
