188 Unconditional Love

11296735_sWhile this song was a light hearted attempt at exploring the nature of “married love” and the stuff in our primary relationships that we have to “put up with” in order to get along… it’s ultimately really about a much higher kind of love… with a few changes I could sing this song at Unity and not only get a good healthy laugh, but inspire tolerance and appreciation of our differences… hmmm…. maybe this should be on the list for next sunday…. (slightly modified of course)… enjoy!

– Mark

p.s. I love YOU. UNCONDITIONALLY… as long as you keep reading and listening to my song blog that is! ;o)

p.p.s. and PLEASE! can we just for once put the damn cap back on the toothpaste? sheesh!

Unconditional Love

Song #188 | 6/10/1993 | CD: tbd

Refrain:
Unconditional love
Unconditional love
Unconditional love
You’ve got my unconditional love
You’ve got my unconditional love

Even if you are politically incorrect
Unconditional love
Even if you belong to some New Age sect
Unconditional love
Even if you never finished elementary school
Unconditional love
Even if you borrow and don’t return my tolls

Refrain:

Even if you leave the cap off of the toothpaste
Unconditional love
Even if you put that weird goop on your face
Unconditional love
Ever if you hired that private eye to follow me
Unconditional love
When I was just trying to plan your surprise party!
Unconditional love

Bridge:
No matter what you’ve thought.
No matter what you’ve done
No matter what you failed to do or how far you’ve run
No matter what you say or what you believe
No matter if you stay or if you decide to leave…

Refrain:

I love you even though you hated that sweet bungalow
Unconditional love
It was too small and too close to the road and you told me so
Unconditional love
I love you even though you liked that condominium
Unconditional love
Remember the one that looked like cubic zirconium?

You have put a grown man in tears…

Mark, this song and message really hit home for me today. You have put a grown man in tears. Thank You for what you do. Sometimes I think you sound kind of cheesy, and then others, I think you are a genius, and I’m beginning to realize that you actually care about helping people. So hard to “get out of your own way” sometimes…thanks for the reminder.

Jeremy

Just awesome…

Your music is taking over my life and it’s awesome!

Eric

I loved the song and listened to it 3 times….

Hi Mark, I just had to tell you this. I emailed my 3 granddaughters the song you wrote who are sisters with the youngest being 11 years old, has cerebral palsy and is very smart, is able to talk, very funny, uses a computer, is able to write, now is learning to play drums, emails me ‘Thanks. I do.’ I loved the song and listened to it 3 times.

Gail Russ

For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love…

Dear Mark, THANK YOU for sending *Spark & Flame*!!!! This CD certainly is a compilation of Conscious Love Songs! As I listen I am transported to memory after memory past, present and future, fulfilled and unfulfilled. I was flooded with many different emotions. I cried, laughed, held my breath and also breathed deep heart-centered breaths of connection to the Divine. I feel joy, grief, sadness, compassion, love, awe, freedom, kindness, gratitude and appreciation. For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love, releasing, acceptance for what was, what is and who I am. Knowing that I am enough and that I am Divinely Loved.

J

Love your lyrics!

Love your music! Love your lyrics!

Robin Bridgeford

Been singing the chorus since the first day I heard it…

I sh*t you not when I say I’ve been singing the chorus to Honest Rock since the first day I heard it. I sing this every single day. Many times a day. Seriously. It’s like a mantra to me. It soothes me:-)

Gene Moore
