I Have Known Love Songtext

von Silver Apples

I have known love and love has won.
I burned my fingers on the sun.
I have known love and love has won.
I burned my fingers on the sun.

I've been imprisoned on the moon.
I've been imprisoned on the moon.
I have known love and love has won.

I have learned what truth denies.
I drank the teardrops from her eyes.
I have learned what truth denies.
I drank the teardrops from her eyes.

I surrendered much too soon.
I surrendered much too soon.
I have learned what truth denies
I never heard the warning voice.
I never knew I had a choice.
I never heard the warning voice.
I never knew I had a choice.

Though I never wanted to return.
I never wanted to return
I never heard the warning voice
But I have sailed upon the boat
That flew when there was room to float.
But I have sailed upon the boat
That flew when there was room to float.

And I drank out of the magic urn.
And I drank out of the magic urn.
But I have sailed upon the boat
And I have slept inside the shade
Encircled by the love we made.
And I have slept inside the shade
Encircled by the love we made.

And I have kissed the face of dreams.
And I have kissed the face of dreams.
I have slept inside the shade
And I have ridden on the glow
That warms the sky with a rainbow.
And I have ridden on the glow
That warms the sky with a rainbow.

And I have waded in its golden streams.
And I have waded in its golden streams.
And I have ridden on the glow
And I have danced between the stars
With music sung by sweet guitars.
And I have danced between the stars
With music sung by sweet guitars.

I've done some things that can't be done.
I've done some things that can't be done
And I have danced between the stars
And I have smiled inside the storm
Reaching higher to keep warm.
And I have smiled inside the storm
Reaching higher to keep warm

I've known love and love has won.
I have smiled inside the storm
I burned my fingers on the sun
