For Jude

lyrics

Addendum:

A small child asks me, “What is it that you believe?”
Him with a head full of magic and angels, that watch him while he sleeps.
And tooth fairies and Father Christmas, and Monsters in the deep.
And Shaunie and Grandpa Mark in Heaven above.

So I reach for the thinkers, I’ve read over time.
For Marx and Jung and Wittgenstein
For Dickens and Dawkins and Hitchens and James
I drank ‘em down like fine red wine.

But when Bibles and textbooks and scholarly words,
Are finally put away,
As I gaze down into those innocent eyes,
Just this single truth remains…
I believe in Love.
I believe in Love.
I believe in Love.

And to all of you cynics, doubters and fools
Wise men and prophets, and government mules,
Believers and Heretics, Teachers and Thieves,
I offer this one relief.
To science and scholars that can’t be denied,
To every religion pulling hope from the sky,
To the paupers and Princes, and beggars and Kings
I have but one belief…
I believe in love.
I believe in Love.
I believe in Love.
