If We Only Have Love

(album: Olivia - 1972)

If we only have love
Then tomorrow will dawn
And the days of our years will rise on that morn
If we only have love
To embrace without fears
We will kiss with our eyes
We will sleep without tears

If we only have love
We can reach those in pain
We can heal all our wounds
We can use our own name
If we only have love
We can melt all the guns
And then give the new word
To our daughters and our sons

Oh, if we only have love
With our arms open wide
Then the young and the old will stand at our side
If we only have love
We will never bow down
We'll be tall as the pines
Neither heroes nor clowns

If we only have love
To be shared by all men
We will drink from a dram
To be born once again
If we only have love
If we only have love
