From the Album: SugarFoot
Where Is The Love Michelle Malone (Strange Bird Songs/ASCAP)
Love is like a stray rebellious bird
Call it and you’ll never hear a word
It’s not the feather flutter sound
Just the wind swirling around
Love is like a stray rebellious bird
Turn away and then she will appear
Wait no more and wings will flicker near
It’s likely love will come to you
When you’ve given up your due
She only wants what she doesn’t have
Where is the love?
Why don’t you show me?
Where is the love?
Don’t act like you don’t know me
The song she’ll sing to you will cast a spell
Her beauty, rare, will cause your heart to swell
Just when you think she’s in your palm
You’ll open it to find she’s gone
Then you’ll cry more than the whippoorwill
Where is the love?
Why don’t you show me?
Where is the love?
Don’t act like you don’t know me
When you need her most she will not come
Selfish and untamed, she’ll abandon
She’ll turn her wings and fly away
There is no law she must obey
She will depart as quickly as the sun
Where is the love?
Why don’t you show me?
Where is the love?
Don’t act like you don’t know me
