PERHAPS LOVE

John Denver 1943-97

Perhaps love is like a resting place,

A shelter from the storm;

It exists to give you comfort,

It is there to keep you warm.

And in those times of trouble

When you are most alone

The memory of love will bring you home.

Perhaps love is like a window,

Perhaps an open door;

It invites you to come closer,

It wants to show you more.

And even if you lose yourself

And don't know what to do,

The memory of love will see you through.

Oh, love to some is like a cloud,

To some as strong as steel,

For some a way of living,

For some a way to feel;

And some say love is holding on

And some say letting go,

And some say love is everything

And some say they don't know.

Perhaps love is like the ocean

Full of conflict, full of pain,

Like a fire when it's cold outside

Or thunder when it rains.

If I should live forever

And all my dreams come true,

My memories of love will be of you.
