Kim Kaler's Song Lyrics:
Love is Thicker
After two hundred seventy four days in this world
I traveled from her arms to theirs
They held me close -- as an oyster holds its pearl
And there was joy in the air
I spent many hours in the garden – mom and me
And we both loved the voices of Loretta (Lynn) and Dolly
Moving men on a field always caught my father’s eye
But I instead was gazing and paintings of the sky
Whispers echoed through the years, no words were said
I never felt at home in the house where the roots spread
Always felt like a faded hue, in the portrait on the wall
Hoping forrrrr/ some connection, big or small
I soon found solace in a kind older man
(And) spent August days, in the sea and the sand
We ambled through jungles to see what we could/might see
Then shared meals of smiles and kimchi
Many years later, I met a girl that felt like home
She prodded me to search for a truth to call my own
I unearthed some others whose eyes --they looked like mine
And we all started making up for (all the) lost time.
CHORUS:
They say blood is thicker than water
But I say love is thicker than both
Ah, Ah,Ah,Ah,Ah,
Ohh love, is thicker than both.
