Originally from the 2006 record "Colours of Addiction," this rendition of "Reign of Love" was re-recorded in 2014 to capture the simplicity that was initially intended when written.
lyrics
I was blind, but now I see,
From New York to L.A. down to New Orleans,
Steppin' out, going world-wide,
Gotta gift of love going 'round that just can't hide,
Yeah you ought'a know by now,
Yeah you ought'a know by now,
That something is going down, down to the ground
It's a reign of love,
It's a rain of love,
It's a reign of love,
It's a reign of love
Now you know, just where I've been,
And you know you've gotta break away before get back in,
One more time, you've gotta song to prove,
Gotta break into your soul to carry out your groove,
Yeah you ought'a know by now,
Yeah you ought'a know by now,
That something is going down, down to the ground
It's a reign of love,
It's a rain of love,
It's a reign of love,
It's a reign of love
Bridge
And the thunder rolls, and the lightning strikes,
The darkened ground, into a flash of light,
Tell me what you see,
Tell me what you get,
Tell me what is love,
Lest I should forget...
Repeat Chorus
