Lyrics
Spoiler
This is *Your Name*.
Back together.
And now April's coming round for us to pen a poem or two, we're writing by the letter.
And every poem getting so much better. The group of us ain't gonna follow your rules
so join us and pick some figurative tools.
Let's go and write a tune.
Let's write a poem or two.
Go ahead and try to write me if you're able
can't you see that poetry is very playful?
I can see you love the words we intermingle
and all the metaphors and the symbols
and we're not gonna stop what we've written together
We are gonna write like this forever
April comes and goes, but we're always a member
of the Y-W-S poetry club. We are made
o-o-o-o-ofLove.
o-o-o-o-ofLove.
o-o-o-o-ofLove.
Lo-o-o-o-ove
Lo-o-o-o-ove
Lo-o-o-o-ove
mmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm[hums]
This is who we are.
This is our passion.
And if you think you want to join us, then you need to, come on now!
Poetry's a feeling, and it will never end.
And it can be a painful journey
but we are here with all our friends.
Go ahead and try to write me if you're able
Can't you see that poetry is very playful?
I know you think a poem's something you're afraid of
but all you really need is something creative.
I am even more than a group of words
Everything you care about is what I am.
I am their fury.
I am their patience.
I am a conversation.
I am made
o-o-o-o-of
lo-o-o-o-ove
lo-o-o-o-ove
And it's stronger than words.
Lo-o-o-o-ove
o-o-o-of L-o-o-oove
And it's stronger than words.
*Lo-o*-o-o-ove
o-o-o-of *L-o*-o-oove
And it's stronger than words.
Lo-o-o-o-ove
o-o-o-of L-o-o-oove
