Lyrics
______________________________________________________________________

(PIANO INTRO)

if you want it, you can have it

'cause I know a few that's got it

and I had it once but now it's gone

if you're a dreamer you can do it

'cause there's really nothing' to it

and it doesn't have to take too long

 

you won't beat it, you won't fight it

you can't cheat it, you can't hide it in your pocket

you won't carry it home

if you're a faker you won't make it

or a taker you won't take it

in a locket where your secret's known

 

love, sweet love

love, sweet love

 

well I dreamed I drank with Jesus

and the told me all the reasons

He explained the powers of darkness and light

and he cried before a candle

as he thought of how we handle

the one feeling that just can't be denied

 

love, sweet love

love, sweet love

 

oh, take me down where the water flows

Lord, take me now

strip me of all I know

and give me love, sweet love

give me love, sweet love

(PEDAL STEEL STUFF)
