words and music by Howard Ashby Kranz

                               D     sus4        D     sus4              

1. Everybody wants love -- what’s love?

                             A   sus4       A    sus4

I want you to love me -- who’s me?

                               A   sus4       A    sus4                           D  sus4  D  sus2

And the more that I see, the more I see I can’t see -- what’s love?

        G                     G/F#        Em/E            A              D  D7  G  D

The things that I can hold in my hand are important to me

        G                  G/F#        Em/E  Em/B     A              A7     D 

The love that I can hold in my arms,   and the beauty that I can see

         C/C                   C/B    Am/A      Am/E      G    G/F#   Em/E           

But when it’s down to being alone, then my best friend

           G                                         A                           

Is the heart of my heart, where my thoughts all end,

        C             D          G     

and everything starts again.

                              D   sus4    D     sus4              

2. And I love to be me - who, me?

                             A   sus4     A    sus4

And I love to love you -- ooh, you!

                                    A sus4                                 A sus4 D  sus4  D  sus2

when our hearts beat as one, who we are, what may come -- who cares?

        G                             G/F#           Em/E                A        D  D7  G  D

The words that they may write on my stone won’t belong to me.

        G               G/F#  Em/E    Em/B       A                A7          D 

The flowers are for the mourners, and the river always feeds the sea.

         C/C                   C/B   Am/A     Am/E     G   G/F#  Em/E           

But when it comes to being alive, then our best friend

           G                                         A                      

Is the heart of our heart, where our lives all end,

         C             D          G     

and everything starts again.

          C                       D                  G    C   G
