NO WAY

“Hollywood’s the place where they pay a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul”
That’s what Marilyn said
“I know because I turned down the first often enough and held out for the fifty cents”
That’s what Marilyn said

No way, no way, no way, no way
No, you’re never gonna find a way to kill me
Not this luminous, limitless, life-giving love
No way, no way, no way, no way
No, you’re never gonna find a way to still me
Beneath and below and beyond and above

“Do you think because I’m poor, obscure and plain and small, that I have no soul?”
That’s what Miss Bronte said
“But if God gave me beauty and wealth I should have made it as hard for you to leave me as it is for me to leave you.”
That’s what Charlotte said

“To die, too young to die. No, not I. I love the warm and sunny skies.”
That’s what my true love said
“The light, the song, the shining eyes. I want no war and no battle cry. No, no, not I”
That’s what my true love said

You can kill everything, but you can’t kill this love
Beneath and below, beyond and above
You can kill everything, but you can’t kill this love
Beneath and below, beyond and above

A Song Can Tell A Story

When words leave off, music begins.

NO WAY
