Lyrics
Bohemian Love Song
written by: keith johnston
I come to you
With nothing but love,
Love and this song
The melody keeps you young
And my love will keep you warm
I come to you with shining eyes
and a need for the truth
these only things of value I have
I offer you
As I gaze into the flames of your eyes
I am bound with invisible strings
That pulls out the beauty in my life
To share with all living things
No money, no jewels, no riches nor fame
Have I now to offer for your hand
I’m poor in all things but the spirit cherie
But the forces of nature have willed us to be
You have that little bit of
Je ne sais quoi
That reaches down deep
Inside of my heart
That certain kind of something
I can’t say just what
Le coeur a ses raisons, - (the heart has its reasons)
que la raison ne connaît point - (which reason has no part)
I’ve a wondering soul
with a gypsy heart
and a spirit that likes to roam
but wherever you are
and together we are
is where I call home
true love is the essence of all space and time
true love is the absence of both you and I
true love is what brings out the best in both of us
true love is all we have
