"Love Is Not Possession" lyrics

It's a mystery to me
No rhyme or reason to it, far as I can see
Love is everywhere, but it's so hard to find
I guess love can make you blind

It's not always where it's supposed to be
Sometimes it just hits you like a falling tree
But I wonder why it causes so much jealousy
Because, love is not possession
Not possession

It can take you by surprise
Just the look in someone's eyes
Can fire your imagination
Maybe life could be better after all

But there's no way to be sure
So you got to learn to take it day by day
And accept the fact that it might just fade away
Because, love is not possession

It can take many forms
A mother's look for a baby just been born
And how you feel for your best friend in his hour of need
A soldier can feel a kind of love
Or the guys who shares his dice with death
'Cause you know it's all things to all men

But you can't expect to have control
Over when and how you feel it
And it's a shame when people try to hold on to it
When they should let it die its natural death

'Cause it's final death can set you free
To start the next part of your life
Because, love is not possession
Not possession
