LOVE IN ANY LANGUAGE


"Je t'aime te amo"
"Ya tyibya I yublu"
"Ani ohevet othka"
"I love you"
The sounds are all as different
As the lands from which they came
And though our words are all unique
Our hearts are still the same

CHORUS
Love in any language
Straight from the heart
Pulls us all together
Never apart
And once we learn to speak it
All the world will hear
Love in any language
Fluently spoken here

We teach the young our differences
Yet look how we're the same
We learn to laugh, to dream our dreams
We know the sting of pain
From Leningrad to Lexington
The farmer loves his land
And daddies all get misty eyed
When they give their daughters' hands
And maybe now we realize
How much there is to share
We find too much in common
To pretend it isn't there

BRIDGE
Though the rhetoric of governments
May keep our worlds apart
There's no misinterpreting
The language of the heart

------------
Just a thought on "love" - aren't we so lack of love towards each other these days, whether or not we notice it, we are so caught up in our own lives that we forget people around us who might cry out for attention and love (not romantic kind of love).

Anyway that is a great song, I just listened to it on a CD sung by Sandy Patti (my most fav singer).
