Love Is

(words and music: Anna, Jane and Kate McGarrigle/Garden Court Music ASCAP/Sound of Mind SOCAN)

Love is a shiny car
Love is a steel guitar
Love is a battle scar
Love is a morning star

Love is a twelve bar blues
Love is your blue suede shoes
Love is a heart abused
Love is a mind confused

Love is the pleasures untold
And for some love is still a band of gold

My love has no reason has no rhyme
My love crossed the double-line

Love is a minor chord
Love is a mental ward
Love is a drawn sword
Love is its own reward

Love is the pleasures untold
And for some love is still a band of gold
My love has no reason has no rhyme
My love crossed the double-line
