Old Love
Joe Hertler & the Rainbow Seekers Lyrics

We met on the battlefield
We met in the midst of a conflict that did not deter us from exploring a connection.

Drank from the ladle by the moon
Together, under a moonlit night sky, we shared from the same source of nourishment.

The blood expanded across the field Like chrysanthemums in bloom
The violence of war spread around us like flowers, perhaps a stark realization of life and death.

Is there really so much to fear When we′re all just taking sides So work it out (oh) Seek it out (oh) Work it out
Is there a need for division when we should be looking to come together? We must find a way to peacefully resolve our differences.

And a promise is a promise Will you finish what you started I was born to believe that the change in the leaves could really mean anything, love I'd cross the mountains and the ocean for ya Just to see you
A promise is a sacred pledge that must be kept. I believe that nature gives signs of change and we'd go to great lengths to be with each other.

I need that old love And I′m swimming in the dark (swimming in the dark) I need that cool love And I'm frozen from the start (frozen from the start)
The love we shared in earlier days is what I long for, but now I'm uncertain if it's still there. My heart yearns for warmth and security, yet I feel distant and cold.

Oh I strained my eyes to see But it was dark inside and out How I long to hear your breath How I long to hear your sound I so wish to understand These pangs of solitude Maybe my soul will bring me peace Will it place me next to you
I struggle to find clarity, both physically and emotionally, and yearn to reconnect with you in both word and spirit. Will my journey of self-discovery guide me back to you?

Oh I fear what I have become (Lord whatcha gonna give me) All I got left is love (Lord whatcha gonna give me) I'll go to the forest with a samurai sword And I′ll spill out all of my love
I have doubts about myself and question what lies ahead, but one thing that remains true is my love for you. I am willing to fight for it and lay myself bare.

Small rose blooms turned in the water As my body fell to the side, but I fell deeper Into the sand of your love Silently waiting for your infinite embrace And there you float with your arms around me, closing all the distance Eternity is in us now, that you're by my side Each sensation is a memory from our lives
The symbolism of a rose, known for love and passion, blooming in water as my body falls speaks to the intensity of my emotions. Despite my struggles, I patiently wait for your embrace and find solace in the knowledge that together we are infinite, and each moment together is a precious memory.
