Annotationen
Die Liebe, um die es in diesem Song geht, ist eine absolute, idealistische oder philosophische Liebe, nicht eine, die zwischen zwei Menschen spontan entsteht. Diese absolute Liebe wird in drei Verses in verschiedenen Zusammenhängen abgehandelt/präsentiert. Der Chorus verurteilt diese absolute Liebe und diffamiert sie als ein böser Geist, der die verliebten ergreift und von ihnen Besitz nimmt.

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Stone love, she kneels before the grave A brave son who gave his life to save the slogan That hovers between the headstone and her eyes For they penetrate her grieving [Verse 2] New love, a boy and girl are talking New words that only they can share in New words, a love so strong it tears their hearts to sleep Through the fleeting hours of morning [Chorus] Love is careless in its choosing Sweeping over cross and baby Love descends on those defenseless Idiot love will spark the fusion Inspirations have I none Just to touch the flaming dove All I have is my love of love And love is not loving [Instrumentel Verse] [Verse 3] Soul love, the priest that tastes the word and Told of love and how my God on high is All love, though reaching up, my loneliness evolves By the blindness that surrounds him [Chorus] Love is careless in its choosing Sweeping over cross and baby Love descends on those defenseless Idiot love will spark the fusion Inspirations have I none Just to touch the flaming dove All I have is my love of love And love is not loving [Instrumentel Verse] [Instrumentel Verse als Coda]
