poetry thursday

She is Love, by Oasis

Oh when the sunshine beckons to ya
And your wings begin to unfold
The thoughts you bring and the songs you sing
Are gonna keep me from the cold

And if the sword is here among ya
And its words may wound my soul
You can fill me up with what you've got
Cos my heart's been keeping old

She is love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe her when she speaks
Love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe, I do believe her when she speaks

You're in all my thoughts of passion
And the dreams of my delight
Whatever stirs my mortal frame
Will you keep it warm at night

I don't know where you come from
No I haven't got a clue
All I know is I'm in love
With someone who loves me too

She is love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe her when she speaks
Love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe, I do believe her when she speaks
She is love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe her when she speaks

She is love
And her ways are high and steep
She is love
And I believe, I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks


Lyrics look funny when you write them down. This is one of my favorite songs. Makes me think of my R and when we were first getting to know each other. I love the fourth verse. Poetry to music, what more could you ask for?

I love the first verse....it's gorgeous, and you're right, songs do look odd when written down.

i would never believe that such poetic words could come out the Gallagher brothers' mouths!!

good choice..and what a great song to remind you of R
