"Least Expected" lyrics

"Least Expected"

People say
We got our own problems to solve
Here at home
How do we show them
That they are wrong?
There's only one home
Only one earth, we share it all
Only one love

Only one love
Only one love, only one love

Flying through the sunset
When the sky was pink
You called a sparrow
On down to sing for me
When I was scared
You took good care
Oh, you gave me love, yeah
You gave me love when I least expected
Reunited with what I'd lost

Diamonds reflected
In the waters view
How much our love
Could change the world we knew
We saw the teeth of the dragon
In the flowers green
How much our love
Impacts the world we see
In sickness and in health
You took good care
Oh, you gave me love, yeah

You gave me love when I least expected
Sacred love we made when I need it most
Oh, you woke up when I least expected
We must be thankful for what we got
Oh, you helped me find what I never even knew was lost
Oh, I hold you sacred now
You gave me love when I least expected
Reunited with what I'd lost

Into the universe
The earth holds the key
A divine drug
The dirt that grows the tree
We live in its shade
And in the love we make
I knew you before birth
And now this life we share
We'll enter into death
You know we'll meet again
Oh, to share our love
Oh, to share our love

You gave me love when I least expected
Sacred love we made when I need it most
Oh, you woke up when I least expected
We must be thankful for what we got
Oh, you helped me find what I never even knew was lost
Oh, I hold you sacred now
You gave me love when I least expected
Reunited with what I'd lost

People say
We got our own problems to solve
Here at home
How do we show them that they are wrong?
There's only one home
Only one earth, we share it all
Only one blood
Only one earth, we share it all
Only one love
