Peter Gabriel – The Book Of Love lyrics
The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

    I mean love is the greatest gift of all that was given to all of us and yes including myself I finally have a chance to see what is really love. I mean he is king of kings and my, our father who art in heaven that created love in an image of his love towards all. But some people get love and lust confused with love and hate.So if you really want to experience Genuine Love start looking within thats where it all starts from the heart! Let get with it don’t hate just participate in the love the one gift we all were born with and that’s a heart to love within to the end. Thanks Angel29
