Preachin' Love Lyrics - Donovan Leitch

From the album best of donovan ii 

I'm preachin' love 

Straight from above 

I know what to do, yes I do. 

Well, I'm breathing love 

Straight from above 

I mean about what I said. 

Well, I understand my congregation 

Is made about the finer sex. 

Well, I don't know about any segregation - 

Anyone may read the text. 

All I do 

Is study you 

In your natural habitat. 

And as I do 

I find that you 

Are all worth saving at that. 

Get around the world and listen 

Life is love is life 

And when you see the teardrops glisten 

I'll have it from trouble and strife. 

Well, I like to be beside the sea 

Diggin' where we came or what for. 

Well, I think that we 

Were meant to be 

That is all I ever saw, oh, oh. 

Oh, I feel so exhilarated, yeah 

In love with love, with love. 

I'm never explicated 

I just can tell you're enough. 

That's right, yeah. 

Well, I'm preachin' love 

Straight from above 

I may know to her what I heard. 

Well, I'm breathing love 

Straight from above 

I mean about what I said. 

Well, I understand my congregation 

Is made about the finer sex. 

Well, I don't know about any segregation - 

Anyone may read the text. 

Well, I like to be beside the sea 

Diggin' where we came or what for. 

Well, I think that we 

Were meant to be 

That is all I ever saw, oh, oh. 

Oh well I feel so exhilarated, yeah 

In love with love, with love. 

I'm never explicated 

I just can tell you're enough. 

Preachin' love, preachin' love 

Preachin' love, preachin' love 

Preachin' love, preachin' love 

I know what to be true, yes I do, oh yeah.
