Without Michelangelo -

Black is only black until you light a candle

Stone is only stone until you take a hammer

And this song was just a song until the day you came along

And wrote this wrong

It wouldn’t be David without Michelangelo

No Starry, Starry Night without the light of Van Gogh

And I’ll never be the same since you put me in your frame

And signed your name

War is only war until you lose somebody

Love is only love until I touched your body

Imagine a world without John Lennon, the rain and the wind without Bob Dylan

Blue without Joni, blue without Miles

But every song is just a song until somebody comes along

And makes it sing

It wouldn’t be David without Michelangelo

No Starry, Starry Night without the light of Van Gogh

And I’ll never be the same since you put me in your frame

And signed your name

Black is just black until you light a candle

Stone is just stone until you take a hammer

War is just war until you lose someone

Love is…
