Love Driven

Love only grows in the very best of soil
And if there are weeds in it
Your best efforts are all going to fail

The soil must be kept warm
For love to germinate
And it cannot have weeds
Like pride, and greed and hate

Love takes understanding 
Tolerance and care
Love means you see each other's trials
Of them you are aware

You can't be mean and love
It doesn't work that way
And if love is going to come
Both sides must keep their tongues at bay

America is divided
And so the lesson that I have given
Is that only love can change that
We've got to be love driven
