Well I first met Samuel on a college campushe was wearing a brown button up shirtand brown rope sandalsand he told me that God loved meeven when I didn't obey my parents or wasn't mindful of all His other commandmentslike not putting Him firstor being covetous of my neighbors stuffAnd I ain't never heard this beforeso I said, "Hey! What for what did God love me so for no reason more?"And he looked deep into my eyeballspass my iris and vesselsthrough my heartand pass various channelsand he ended in my souland he didn't say a wordbecause he didn't have todeep down inside I just knewAnd I found the love I have for a girlfor no obvious reasonThough we're apart my love just grows with every season For the first time I held a newborn baby in my armssaw her little heart beatfelt her little fingers and little toesor that time when I was walking alone through the woodsand I saw a brown bear all shaken and shaggyor the love I have for my fathereven though he gave me every reason to hate himor the first time I flew in an airplaneit was a religious experienceor the first time I saw a cactus in Arizonait was a religious experienceor that time when I was in Swedenhavin Swedish meatballsat my friends Vick's housepretending to read Swedish to his little daughterwith blond hair and blue eyesa story about a bear named Bossyshe just laughed and she laughedover and over again in SwedishSamuel kept talking people kept walking and bawkinand their curious stalkinlike hungry wolves with no legsbut they're too proud to hang their heads and begbut they don't see that they don't have toGod wants to he wants to pour out his love on usuntil our hands are full and our ragin minds coolmy love is a raisinand God's is a pumpkinor a cantaloupeor a watermelonor a really big somethingand I want to eat ityeah I want to be lovedfor no other reason at all except that I amall my quirks and my wrongs and my insecuritiesall my passions my better habits and abilitiesAdam and Eve were both nakedand bore their soles and bodies for one anotherand they were acceptI want to be naked tooyeah let's all get nakedI want to be naked with all of youthere is a fear between us and beneathmy heart is a drawbridgeI'll lower it downso you can come in and meet meand we can eat and drink some tea
