Story Behind The Song
Madeline Murray O'hare was a renouned athiest who wrote repeatedly in her journal before she died, "Somebody, somewhere- love me!" I don't feel it is coincidental that she felt devoid of love, seeing she was denying the foundation and author of love, God.

This is a high intensity, emotional exclamation of every persons desire to experiance love. It is in a fast 4, and mostly diatonic, but has some complementary melodic parts in the guitar and synth.

Lyrics
Love: love will conquer all. Love won't make you fall down
Love gives itself away, never takes or runs astray, no.
Love me, won't you love me. Love me tonight
Love heals a broken heart, love will give a seconds start; love me.
Love me with that higher love,
consecrated from above.
Don't give me what I want
love will give me what I need
though I grapple at your feet
and my flesh is begging please
will you stay with me awhile
before you have to go
because my soul will soon accept what my body doesn't know
will you hold me for a moment and heal me with your tears
because my problem doesn't dissapate with hours or with years
do you know a place that takes away your darkness and your fears, and replaces all your guilt with a 'Hallelujah'?
Love me now, love me somehow
love me for real, doesn't matter how you feel
love me true, no difference how you do it.
Love me now, love me somehow, yeah.
