LOVE'S NEVER POWERLESS
(Words and Music; Colin Reece)

From the albums Well Kept Secrets and Good and Plenty by Colin Reece

 Ying and Yang

So fine the line

'Tween righteousness and holier than thou or thine

What's mine is mine

And yours for the taking

And how weak the breath

The power to the struggle between life and death

Such a fragile nest

And yours for the breaking.

And the power of love

So honest its simplicity bears all above

But yet the love

Of power's ever loveless

And the love of power

Simply kill's all honesty in the final hour

But yet the power

Of love’s never powerless.

A gentle breeze blows dust to dull the colours of the land

Could ever there have been a wind so cruel

Disturbing mirrored waters with the waving of its hand

But the wind has seeds to spread

And faces to cool.
