CIRCLES OF LOVE

How can I out into words
The circles of love spinning round in my brain
But if language fails
How else on earth am I going to explain

The things I want to say
Would take up more space than the world could contain
Yet they'd drip away
Right thru the web of my words just like rain

So hear my circles of love
Like rings on a pond
Hear my circles of love
expand ever on

A lifetime of love
Maybe the only hope I've got to show
The feelings I hold
So deeply inside me that it's hard to know

Just what to say
The words fly about me like great flocks of birds
I must live what I feel
And hopefully actions will speak more than words

So hear my circles of love
Like rings on a pond
Hear my circles of love
Expand ever on
