Still from the film
"The Theory of Everything" (2014)
How I wish Love was, indeed
All the world could truly need
To purge us of a moral cancer
We’d live in peace, were it the answer
Love our neighbour, as ourselves
Push hate and spite to back of shelves
When we feel our worst impulse rise
Just summon Love, away hate flies!
If only, oh if only, Love
Was something we had too much of!
Had spirit, soul, entire being
Was capable of fleshly feeling
Then Love could take us in its arms
Comfort, calm, regale with charm
Invade our senses with its presence
Stand strong and firm, more than mere essence
We’d never feel alone or fear
We’d have safe harbour always near
Distress of ever feeling lonely -
Gone, should Love cure all, if only…
