Adam Phiri - Love

Love never hurts but the aftermath
What starts out sweet can end out sour
To retain the love you need the power
Cannot do without it anyway

When love is in you
You feel the waves, the vibration
And the pounding heart
And you know from the start
That this is not imagination
It is something you feel
And it is real

Love is not taught at school
That makes even the brilliant
A fool
But it can also make you resilient
Love is something you should use
Or you lose

Love is not something you buy
But something you earn
The more you love is the more you learn
That love can pass you by
If not accommodated
