"Love Can Grow"

Copyright 1993, Tano Music

Words & Music by Tom Sperrazzo

There's a flower whose stem has been broken,

Waiting only for words to be spoken,

Hoping someone will listen enough to care.

 

In the corner a seedling is thirsting;

Bigger brothers have bounty that's bursting;

And the worst thing's pretending that he's not there.

 

In the garden are futures at stake;

See the difference in life you can make!

With your hand in the earth, theyu will grow,

They will grow!

 

Find a flow'r that's falling, hear a seedling calling;

Find a vine too small, or a blossom that's slow;

And if help's demanded, just go empty-handed;

If you give it LOVE CAN GROW--

If you give it, love can surely grow.
