Entry 026 - I Understand Love Now (Song)

I Understand Love Now

Sung & Written By Allshine Stardust

Give me a second,

To talk about you.

Then kiss me,

Before you go.

I needed this time,

To see how lonely I’d been,

And yet, when you came,

You made me feel clear and clean.

(Chorus)

I found out,

that I am not on a single track.

My journey,

Is more than a fade to black.

I’ll hurt,

But it’s a pain that I can allow,

Because I met you,

And I understand love now.

You didn’t see me,

As so many ponies do.

You saw me as a thing of beauty,

So you said, if that is true.

When it all changed,

I thought it was all just a prank.

How could this happiness and hope,

Be so easily punctured and sank?

(Chorus)

I found out,

that I am not on a single track.

My journey,

Is more than a fade to black.

I’ll hurt,

But it’s a pain that I can allow,

Because I met you,

And I understand love now.

(Bridge)

How did fairgrounds, parties and laughing songs,

Kisses, dances and moonlight strolls,

Turn dour in the fall, and rain clouds,

Sob their sorrows in my heart of holes?

Friends say I changed when I took the blame,

Of your words, and shames, and run arounds,

But how does a mare stay the same,

When all her smiles turn to frowns.

(Chorus)

I found out,

that I am not on a single track.

My journey,

Is more than a fade to black.

I’ll hurt,

But it’s a pain that I can allow,

Because I met you,

And I understand love now.

Now I live, because life is for the living,

And love, who I am prepared to be killed by,

Because if you cannot trust a heart,

Then you might as well be prepared to die.

You can sing me all your songs of hope,

Promise me castles full of wishes and fairy tales,

But I’ve seen both sides of love now,

It’s beautiful triumphs and it’s wicked fails.

(Chorus)

I found out,

that I am not on a single track.

My journey,

Is more than a fade to black.

I’ll hurt,

But it’s a pain that I can allow,

Because I met you,

And I understand love now.

Love will hurt, and love will be kind,

It can open eyes, and it can blind,

I fought to win love, and that is how,

I discovered I know nothing about love now.
