He is now to be among you
At the calling of your hearts
Rest a**ured this troubadour
Is acting on His part
The union of your spirits here
Has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is Love, there is Love
Well, a man shall leave his mother
And a woman leave her home
They shall travel on to where
The two shall be as one
As it was in the beginning
Is now and til the end
Woman draws her life from man
And gives it back again
There is Love, there is Love
Well, there must have been a reason
For becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings it here,
Or Love that brings you life?
(Is it law that brings you here,
Or Love that gives you life?)
For if Loving is the answer,
Then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something
That you've never seen before?
Oh, there is Love,
Oh, there's Love.
Oh, the marriage (union) of your spirits here
Has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is Love, there is Love.
The first context of this song is for a couple being
Married. The underlying idea is much more general.
It can be said in different ways:
Whenever two or more unite in a common purpose,
A synergy exists so that the whole is greater than
The sum of the parts: 1 + 1 = 3 or 10 or 100!
Anytime two or more are bound together by love,
God is present.
When two or more aspire to the same higher goal,
Magic touches them all.
