Love After Death lyrics

[Sampled Interlude: bell hooks]
Where do we begin to learn what love is?
How to love?
I mean, that's part of—
Part of what I think is the magic of Sharon's book is that, really, it's—
It has a lot of how-to, um, work in it
In many ways it's a workbook, it's a handy book
Because we don't know what to do, you know?
I remember trying to tell my young lover at the time, um, at the time who seemed not to comprehend love, I—
Oh! I, I wrote on a little postcard thing
Y'know, love is a combination of six ingredients:
Care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect, and trust
And so if you don't know what you're doing, just pull out that little card and ask yourself, in what way does my action that I'm taking reflect these traits, these characteristics, these, these values if you will?
And so then I think again, the question of love is the question of what to do
