You know the secret of love, help me know it
You know how to love, help me live it
You know the pain of love, help me embrace it
You know the rejection of love, help me preserve it
You know the trials of love, help me endure it
You know the joy of love, help me radiate it
You know the sweetness of love, help me savor it
You know the wildness of love, help me imitate it.
You know the silence of love, help me value it
You know the victim hood of love; help me be a holocaust of love
You know the victory of love; help me burn that I may
Join in your triumph of love!
