Love's the Holy Grail

The Bible got it right,

The Good Book fought the fight,

But God turned on the light,

And gave us second sight.

Now the meaning's clear,

We don't need all that fear,

It cost us all too dear,

Religion's one big blur,

So look into the heart,

Where else can you start?

To find the real part

You need the mystic art

It's love and it's for real

What else can you feel?

Love's the Holy Grail

And love can never fail

They brought it from the stars

With energies from Mars

Radiating powers

So pure it lasts for hours

I saw a spacecraft once

It saw me too - at once

I never spoke out since

But now I am convinced

 

(These words were 'sung' to me by a rock musician who lived in the twentieth century)
