A Prayer to John / Arapuca do João
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.
Love, (love) love is the only way
Love, (love) love is the only way
Love is the only way...
John, I hope you hear my prayer
No, we don’t need a civil war
John, I open my mind and heart
It’s so hard to live today
But our faith remains the same
Love, (love) love is the only way
Love, (love) love is the only way
Love is the only way...
