Larry Norman - Love Is The Reason

The night was falling like a velvet curtain
I felt so drowsy as I watched the screen
Thought I saw something but I wasn't certain
On display

I heard a signal from the stratosphere
Could this be contact from a higher plane
And then a message whispered in my ear
Go all the way, go all the way

Oh oh oh oh love is the reason
Oh oh oh oh love is the light
Oh oh oh oh now is the season
Oh oh oh oh let's get it right

There was an alien who came among them
He told them things they'd never heard before
They were afraid and so they nailed and hung him
Now he's gone

No one can stop the endless revolution
Love has the power to overcome the throne
Of every kingdom, every institution
On and on, on and on

Oh oh oh oh love is the reason
Oh oh oh oh love is the light
Oh oh oh oh now is the season
Oh oh oh oh let's get it right

You got to walk straight ahead and keep the path in sight
And always keep looking for the light

I'm getting ready before armageddon
Don't wanna miss the chance to spread the word
I wanna tell them where this world is heading
Have you heard, have you heard

Oh oh oh oh love is the reason
Oh oh oh oh love is the light
Oh oh oh oh now is the season
Oh oh oh oh let's get it right

And always keep looking for the light
