Song Lyrics

In the temple of love it's alright
Woman and man and child are free
In the temple of money it's alright
Woman and man and child are free

Inside his brain a tom-tom's pounding absurdly tonight
As a mystic talisman fell out from the blue skylight
Each beating drum miracles the wonder of his dream
As he held it in his hands
Revealing colors he had never seen
A simple boy now faced with oceans between?

(Love and money, o no, no, no, no)
Which lucky star shines for me?
(Love and money, o no, no, no, no)
Which is the better to be?
Oh no

And as the indigo night turned to dawn, magic flowed
Suddenly there appeared a pot of shimmering gold
(His tender heart began to quiver
Like a river run wild)
Love's deepest beauty ordained
For this mysterious virgin child
Temptation danced, he reconciled?

(Love for money, o no, no, no, no)
Which lucky star shines for me?
(Love and money, o no, no, no, no)
Which is the better to be?
Oh no

In the temple of love it's alright
Woman and man and child are free
In the temple of love it's alright
Woman and man and child are free
In the temple of love it's alright
In the temple of love it's alright

In the temple of love it's alright
Woman and man and child are free
In the temple of love it's alright
Woman and man and child are free
In the temple of love it's alright
In the temple of love it's alright

Many years have passed since the talisman' fall
A thousand lonely nights spent without a lover's call (lovers call)
Tangled by his greed, salvation light my soul (light my soul)
Where do the better angles of our nature go?
Like a raw-boned scavenger, he fell down to his knees
Give will to power my lord
Through all your kindred, spirit please
For I believe now love is all you really, need

(Love and money, oh no, no, no, no)
Only through love can we be
(Love and money, oh no, no, no, no)
Only with love are we free
Only with love are we free
(Love and money oh no, no, no)
Love and money
(Love and money oh no, no, no)
Love and money

Oh
Love and money
(Love and money oh no, no, no)
You better find some love
You better go and find yourself some love
(Love and money oh no, no)
Oh no, no
(Love and money oh no, no, no)
