Do I Do
04 September 2006

Do I love you’ do I know
Do I do, or does that show
Because to never know what love is
of that perhaps becoming confused

For there was you, and there was me
and another along this road of travail
While you eyes and your heart were there
my own feelings were scattered along the way

So can I say I love you
when I said that before
Can I say it was truly you
that my heart and soul adore

Not to know your love
but just to pause and think
Here you and I have grown
in the manner of amour to drink

Do I love you’ do I know
or was it tomorrow and yesterday does show
Do I, or do I not, take these feelings
and love you even more than not


“Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and
every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.”
1 John 4: 7-8 KJV
