Story Behind the Song
Love was the motivation and the inspiration for the song. The lyrics express the feelings I had at the time I wanted to ask someone the ultimate question. I wrote the song in a couple of hours. The recording of just me and my guitar took only a short time.

Can We Love

Verse I: Walk softly, when you're near me,
speak softly, do you love me?
Can we love, can we love, can we love today,
can we love?
Verse II: You and I, two souls in love,
breaking the rules that stand in our way.
Do you love me, do you need me, like I do you? Can we love, can we love, can we love today?
Verse III: Touch me, do you need me?
Gently, do you want me?
Softly can I love you? Truly, how I need you.
You're my love, all my love, my love all the way, all the way.
Verse IV: You and I have fallin' in love,
just like lovers often do.
Yes, I love, yes, I need you, you know that I do. You're my love, all my love, my love all the way, all the way.
Verse V: Yes, I love, yes I need you, you know that I do.
Let me tell you, let me show you, the ways that I do.
Can we love, can we love, can we love today,
all the way.
