Everybody needs Love [Song]

EVERYONE NEEDS LOVE
By Shadow

Every girl needs love
And every boy needs love
And every woman needs love
And every man needs love.

I need it, you need it,
Everybody needs some love
He needs it, yay, she needs it
Everybody needs some love.

You can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you
If you love somebody who don't love you
Try somebody else.

You can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you, no, no, no!
If you love somebody who loves you , enjoy yourselves.

Every girl needs love
And every boy needs love
And every woman needs love
And every man needs love.

The preacher, the teacher,
Everybody needs some love
The captain, the chaplain
Everybody needs some love.

But you can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you, oh no, no, no!
If you love somebody who don't love you
Try somebody else.

You can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you, no, no, no!
If you love somebody who loves you, enjoy yourselves.

Because every girl needs love
And every boy needs love
And every woman needs love
And every man needs love.

The doctor, contractor,
Everybody needs some love
Steel bender, scavenger,
Everybody needs some love.

But you can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you, no, no, no, no!
If you love somebody who don't love you
Try somebody else.

You can't make anybody love you
You can't make anybody need you, no, no, no, no!
If you love somebody who loves you, enjoy yourselves.

Because every girl needs love
And every boy needs love
And every woman needs love
And every man needs love.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Shadow!

"You can't make anybody love you." There are times when this simple truth is the hardest pill to swallow. There are times when refusal to accept it has led to prolonged misfortune and sometimes swift tragedy - and not just for the two people immediately involved.

Remember when your elders told you about there being plenty other fish in the sea? Too bad that they only offered this pearl of wisdom when the fish in your hand was briskly wriggling out of your grasp. You were left to juggle the tangible pain of loss and their vague promise of better things to come.

Most likely you kicked optimism to the curb and held on to your anguish. Most likely you had concluded that a fish in the hand was worth a school in the sea. Most likely you then proceeded to treat yourself to the observation of a good, long period of tabanca. 

I hope you survived and I hope that in time you realised that your elders and friends were right. This world is a vast and awesome sea of possibilities and above all, it is your mind, your attitude that will make or break you.

Milton's Satan, after falling to the lowest depths to which any soul can fall, surveyed the desolation of that eternal inferno to which he had been condemned and refused to mourn. Instead he said defiantly:

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, 

a hell of heaven..”

-- John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book I.

Yes, unrequited love can hurt like Hell but don't let any misfortune turn you around. Keep on walking, keep on talking. Go on to build your brand new world.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
