Members ghaw2007 Posted April 6, 2018 Author Members Share Posted April 6, 2018 Mouthful of Love Verse 1: I remember the days when my body was empty / It was like a broken down refrigerator / Anything placed inside of it would become rotten / I was losing a lot of weight / As a result, I was getting weaker / Getting out of bed was such a struggle / From time to time, I would collapse from dehydration / Since you met me and came into my life / I have been gaining strength / Looking back at myself, I cannot believe that I lived that way Verse 2: Your generosity is like breakfast / It provides me with energy / I am able to share with others / And because of that, I realize that many people were just like me / What they needed was a home cooked meal / Whatever they ate was not good enough / And if no one showed that they cared / They would feel more alone Bridge: Your compassion is like dinner / It gives me a sense of belonging / I am able to provide empathy / I am able to be more understanding / All the love that you have shown to me / Fuels me up with the desire to live every day / You saved my life, I'm thanking you for that / I will use what I learned to save someone else Chorus: I am chewing on a mouthful of love / It's the best kind I've ever tasted / I was starving for affection / You have satisfied my hunger / I am chewing on a mouthful of love / I never knew it could be this fulfilling / My stomach was always growling / It no longer does because you fed me Written by B.
