The Lovers

Be my refrain
Because the lovers, they inflame me.
I think I'll sleep alone tonight.
(Ah, but I never had the choice!)

If all love belongs to you,
Put your heart upon my chest.

And the Godless sing along:
"Somebody! Somewhere! Love me!"
Amen, Christ. Come.

Note: The late atheist Madalyn Murray O'Hair (who formed the group "American Atheists," and is responsible for the removal of prayer from public schools in the USA) filled her journal with the phrase "Somebody! Somewhere! Love me!"
