YOUR LOVE AND MINE
(MICHAEL HAMILTON)
CP 2009 JOE BAG O' DONUTS MUSIC, BMI

I MET A LADY SHE WAS WALKING DOWN MY STREET
SHE HAD A SMILE FOR THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD TO SEE
I HAD TO STOP HER AND TRY TO TALK ABOUT IT
I HAD TO FIND OUT HOW SHE CAME AROUND IT
SHE READ THE GOOD BOOK AND THE ANSWER TOLD HER IT WAS SO FREE

SHE CALLED IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE,
YOUR LOVE, AND MINE
SHE CALLED IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE,
YOUR LOVE, AND MINE

I SAW A MAN AND HE WAS STANDING ON A CORNER DOWN TOWN
RECITING VERSES TO ANYBODY WHO COME AROUND
HE SAID YOU GOT TO LEARN TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
HE SAID YOU GOT TO LEARN TO PUT YOUR SELF ABOVE HATE
I’D LIKE TO LEARN THESE THINGS CAN YOU TEACH ME NOW?
HE LOOKED AND HE SAID

HE CALLED IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE,
YOUR LOVE AND MINE
HE CALLED IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE,
YOUR LOVE AND MINE
JUST LIKE THE BLUE SKIES HIGH UP ABOVE YOU
AN THE AIR YOU BREATH
AND THE WORDS I PREACH

I WISH THAT ALL THE LEADERS OF THE LANDS
COULD COME TOGETHER AND JOIN HAND IN HAND
INSTEAD OF SPENDING LIVES ON MUTUAL DESTRUCTION
YOU THINK THEY’D TRY TO TURN THERE HEART AND LEARN SOME LOVE

AND CALL IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE, YOUR LOVE, AND MINE
YOU KNOW YOU CAN REACH DOWN IN YOUR HEART
AND LET IT BE THE LIGHT THAT GUIDES YOU
YOU CAN LAY IT ON THE LINE EVERY DAY AND NIGHT
JUST LIKE THE BLUE SKIES HIGH ABOVE YOU
THINK OF THE GOOD YOU CAN DO FOR THE HUNGRY PEOPLE TOO
AND ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO LAY DYING
KILLING EACH OTHER FOR THEIR GOD
IS THIS WHAT THEIR GOD WANTS? NOT MINE!

REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE, YOUR LOVE, AND MINE
WE CALL IT REAL LOVE, OUR LOVE, YOUR LOVE AND MINE
YOUR LOVE AND MINE
YOUR LOVE AND MINE
