From the recording Jamaica Heart
Lyrics
REAL LOVE
Heaven knows I’ve struggled
God only knows I’ve failed today
I’m lost upon the cliffs of love
Stranded as the last ship sails away
And no one knows that I’ve been left behind
I look for a safe way down but there’s none to find
I feel like I’m the crippled leading the blind
And Lord, all I want to do is find…
I want to find that real love
(Show your face to me)
I want to find that real love
(Bring your grace to me)
I want to find that real love
(Take your place with me)
Because the only thing that’s real is love
My heart is thick with sorrow
And every breath I breathe just wilts away
I’m walking in this endless circle
Like a fool who doesn’t know he’s lost his way
And no one knows that I’ve been left behind
I look for a safe way down but there’s none to find
I feel like I’m the crippled leading the blind
And Lord, all I want to do is find…
I want to find that real love
(Show your face to me)
I want to find that real love
(Bring your grace to me)
I want to find that real love
(Take your place with me)
Because the only thing that’s real is love
Well now, I ain’t no Robert Johnson
But I’ve got my own blues to sing
I don’t want any stones in my pass way, brother
So don’t go looking for any stones to bring
Still, no one knows that I’ve been left behind
I look for a safe way down but there’s none to find
I feel like I’m the crippled leading the blind
And Lord, all I want to do is find…
I want to find that real love
(Show your face to me)
I want to find that real love
(Bring your grace to me)
I want to find that real love
(Take your place with me)
Because the only thing that’s real is love…
The only thing that’s real is love…
The only thing that’s real is love…
The only thing that’s real is love…
And that’s all I need
