I Know What It's Like To Be Loved
by Steve Flanigan

Album: Steve Flanigan

Mm-hmm, yeah

Well, now, they say that the body
Is not of a durable kind
Just cosmic pedestrians
Destined as bones in the ground
While we and our fortunes
Are gathering dust
We yearn for a hope
That would lay those assumptions to rest
Well, now, I know where that hope lives
And I know what it's like to be loved
Yes, I do

Hate is a swindler
And often we know we've been had
So we do unto others
Then run with a leisurely laugh
And when we've had all our barbarian fun
We yearn for a heart
That will soften like wax in the sun
Well, I know about forgiveness
And I know what it's like to be loved
Yeah, here we go!

Oh, shall we lie dormant
With no everlasting exchange?
With no fascination
Beyond the terrestrial range?
And as our inheritance
Seems swept out to sea
We ache with a knowledge
That that's not the way it should be
Well, I know that's not the way it is
And I know what it's like to be loved

Well, I know that's not the way it is
And I know what it's like to be loved
Oh, yes, I know that's not the way it is
And I know what it's like to be loved...
