Love In Any Language

by Sandy Patti

Je t'aime

Te amo

Ya ti-bya lyu blyu

Ani o hev ot cha

I love you



The sounds are all as different

As the lands from which they came

And though the words are all unique

Our hearts are still the same



Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here



We teach the young our differences

Yet look how we're the same

We love to laugh, to dream our dreams

We know the sting of pain



From Leningrad to Lexington

The farmer loves his land

And daddies all get misty-eyed

To give their daughter's hand



Oh maybe when we realize

How much there is to share

We'll find too much in common

To pretend it isn't there



Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here



Tho' the rehtoric of government

May keep us worlds apart

There's no misinterpreting

The language of the heart



Love in any language

Straight from the heart

Pulls us all together

Never apart

And once we learn to speak it

All the world will hear

Love in any language

Fluently spoken here
