A FEAST OF BREAD AND WATER
By Kevin Welch

You're afraid of your own shadow
And I won't let you walk in mine
There's a light somewhere inside you
But you will not let it shine

I  told you as your lover
I told you as your friend
All I can do is show you now
The only way I can

We've come this far and we'll go no farther
You've traded it all
For a feast of bread and water

Love is something that you make
Love is something that you give
It ain't' something that you take
Nah, that ain't no way to live

Love is something that you do
Love is what you do it for
So simple and so true
Love is it's own reward

But we've come this far and we'll go no farther
Cause you traded it all
For a feast of bread and water

Yes we've come this far and we'll go no farther
Cause you traded it all
For a feast of bread and water
