Richard Melvin Brown - To Love One Another Lyrics

Everyday I ask myself why sorrow is part of the ride
Why anguish and adversity are part of our lives
And why is it sometimes life throws us a great big slap in our spirit
Is the reason 'cause we mostly pretend to love one another

Tell me why is pain and suffering a necessary evil
Why do babies die and make their mothers cry God I'm wondering why
And why do men kill other men just because they're a little different
When the heart of God's plan is to laugh and to love one another

Is it just a fantasy and is living in love not meant to be
We've been fighting and fussing and drowning in blood since the world began
If we erase pretenses come to our senses maybe the creator will see
That we've finally discover'd how we all need to love one another

We must try or in a while the wind in the willows will cease to breathe
We must learn to behave in a neighborly way and say I love you
And I think the reason why we're all alive is to dance God's dance together
Reach the goal of God's plan holding hands and to love one another

Is it just a fantasy and is living in love not meant to be
We've been fighting and fussing and drowning in blood since the world began
If we erase pretenses come to our senses maybe the creator will see
That we've finally discover'd how we all need to love one another

And in the end just one thing counts
It's the amount of our love we spread around
And I'm guessing the lesson is to learn how to love one another
