As no weapon formed against me shall prosper
Love is a weapon formed for me to prosper
When sorrow knocks me in its flairs
Love strikes and bid me to rise in its flares
Love gives dogmas that I can’t be defeated
It is my knight in its magnificent shield
A song in my destitute field
And a symbol of faith in spells of solitude
You could do without diamonds
You could do without pearls
You just ought to have love
As love is success in disguise
Love leads me to pretty souls like a good Shepherd
So much resilient but stunning like a leopard
I trust in the sky, I feel perkier days shall appear
As love is a weapon formed for me to prosper
