If you can control love
Then you’ve never felt love

Love is stronger than the human spirit
The transformation of the soul, love did it

Love will waylay you
and disobey you
Love will take you and make you
and break you and remake you
in its own image.

And knows better than you
What it wants to go with you
Presage.
