Additional quotes by Rod McKuen

If we only have love We can melt all the guns And then give the new world To our daughters and sons.If we only have love Then Jerusalem stands And then death has no shadow There are no foreign lands.

We have only love, to help us find our way, as we go out into the world. So... like laughing children we’ll go singing love wherever we go.

Jean, Jean, roses are red All the leaves have gone green And the clouds are so low You can touch them, and so Come out to the meadow, Jean.

Jean, Jean, you're young and alive Come out of your half-dreamed dream And run, if you will, to the top of the hill Open your arms, bonnie Jean. - Rod McKuen
