Music & Lyrics: Lyndon Heart

Love is short medicine. It can only soothe the souls abrasions for a spell
Love is brief amnesty, then it’s back into life’s solitary. Into the celI

I know you want it to be my blood and my breath
To feed all my needs. To last past death.

Don’t look for me to lift you beyond the ball and chain
I can’t be all your answers to the stress and strain
You feel while living out the moves of your game
Those are yours alone and mine are mine

Love is a winter sun north of the arctic circle
Then back to dark, back to dream
Love is a twister’s eye then it’s back into
Life’s long, mad howl. Into the scream

I know you want it to be my blood and my breath
To feed all my needs. To last past death.

Don’t look for me to wake you from your toss and turn
I can’t be all your comfort when you’ve been burned
There are just some things only you can learn
Those are yours alone and mine are mine

Love is sweet perfume, expensive and kind
Used with thought and care it can change
The smell of the worst day. It can send you sailing
Back to the faith you thought you’d lost

Love is short medicine and, in small doses,
It can be relief. It can cure. It can cure
