Love's Recovery Lyrics
Love's Recovery by Chantal Kreviazuk
It was hard to turn the other cheekÂ
To the blows of insecurityÂ
Feeding the cancer of my intellectÂ
The blood of love soon neglectedÂ
Lay dying in the strength of its impurityÂ
Meanwhile our friends we thought were so togetherÂ
They've all gone and left each otherÂ
In search of fairer weatherÂ
And we sit here in our storm and drink a toastÂ
To the slim chance of love's recovery
There I am in younger days, star gazingÂ
Painting picture perfect mapsÂ
Of how my life and love would beÂ
Not counting the unmarked paths of misdirectionÂ
My compass, faith in love's perfectionÂ
I missed ten million miles of road i should have seenÂ
Meanwhile our friends we thought were so togetherÂ
Left each other one by one on the road to fairer weatherÂ
And we sit here in our storm and drink a toastÂ
To the slim chance of love's recovery
Rain soaked and voice chokedÂ
Like silent screaming in a dreamÂ
I search for our absolute distinctionÂ
Not content to bow and bendÂ
To the whims of culture that swoop like vulturesÂ
Eating us away, eating us awayÂ
Eating us away to our extinction
Oh how i wish i were a trinityÂ
So if i lost a part of meÂ
I'd still have two of the same to liveÂ
But nobody gets a lifetime rehearsalÂ
As specks of dust we're universalÂ
To let this love surviveÂ
Would be the greatest gift that we could giveÂ
Tell all the friends who think they're so togetherÂ
That these are ghosts and miragesÂ
All these thoughts of fairer weatherÂ
Though it's storming out I feel safe within the armsÂ
Of love's discovery
