Unconditional Love
Donna Summer · Gold [2005]
You know it's a bright and shiny day
I want to say something to you
I love you just like Ja do
We know a place
Where Ja's people can run free
A new kind of love
And we call it agape
Don't take too long to find
True love transcends all time
That non-reacting, everlasting love
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Don't try to change
Or tear your brother down
Let him make his mistakes
And he will come around
Hasten just to pray
And Ja's true word obey
In non-reacting, everlasting love
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
My torn heart to discern
This agape love to learn
Hasten just pray
And Ja's true word obey
In non-reacting, everlasting love
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
My torn heart to discern
This agape love to learn
Give me your unconditional love
The kind of love I deserve
The kind I want to return
Give me your unconditional love
My torn heart to discern
This agape love to learn
