lyrics
Love is Rare
We don’t know what we want
But we know we can find that love
Faith is all we need to get around
Believe i&i gonna take you high
If you only listen
You hear the man who keeps silent
Come open up your heart, and not your mind,
Cause otherwise you will stay blind to see,
The true reality...
Much more difficult to keep silent
Than to keep on talking and talking
In our loud society
Where everything is so provoking yea
Love is rare
Cause we're afraid to dare
Step by step we're getting there
If we keep an i&i and stay aware
Still we don’t know what we want
But we know we can find that love
Faith is all we need to get around
Believe i&i gonna take you high
If you only listen
You hear the man who keeps silent
Come open up your heart and not your mind
Cause otherwise, you will stay blind to see
The true reality
See in these so stressful days
We have to keep the fire ablaze
Although ambitions buried under pressures
We're social animals in'a the race
So mysterious jah ways
Love is rare
Cause we're afraid to dare
Step by step we're getting there
If we keep an i&i and stay aware
