Old Theory of Love
Old Theory of Love
(A Vollman-Bevins Duet)
(©2019 Anders/O'Bitz)
It was Aristophanes
And his old theory of love
Told us how we look to find
Our lost half for whole
And we never realized
'Til then the other could
As we haunted tall and thin
Entered each his soul
Ah, Ah, ah ha, ha ha oh
It was full astonishment
So late for us to know
Our extreme sense of empathy
Was what made us whole
We discovered so much more
Than who he was and war
We now know that this empathy
That is what life's for
Ah, Ah, ha oh
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
Break
Wait!
Does this all have to mean
A violence starts our world
Zeus cuts from our other half
Into the void we're hurled
And what hope is there to find
And be found before we're gone
And I know we have to be this violence
To find be found as one
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
Ah, ah ha, ha oh oh
