Never a word I’ve feared more.


Never needed a label for adore.


Never a word I’ve desired for.


Never needed a word to make my heart sore.




This four letter word that strikes fear.


A four letter word that I desire to hear.


This four letter word that can burn and sear.


A four letter word that’s always held dear.




What a four letter word can do to the soul.


What it can do to a heart of solid coal.


What a four letter that people extoll.


What is this L-O-V-E that we try to control?
