To love is to be vulnerable
When we love we risk our heart
And when in life, we lose that connection
It is left broken and torn apart
See, the risk is always there
Because we all need to love and be loved
But what confuses us is where that love comes from
Where we should be looking for it is from above
Because how can you love another
When you haven’t been filled from the One on high
If you haven’t received love, then you can’t give love
It can’t overflow from a cup that has run dry
