SUSANNA HOFFS: WEAK WITH LOVE

December eighth in nineteen-eighty

I was home on avondale

Boys were playin' basketball

When the news came in.

And I heard my brother say "oh my god!"

I said "what's the matter jesse? "

He said "i don't wanna tell you this"

And he would not meet my eyes.

Please comfort me

And shelter me

I am weak with love

Comfort me

And shelter me

I am weak with love

The policeman laid him in the police car

He was shot and bleeding

Then he said "are you john lennon? "

John couldn't speak but he nodded "yeah".

And I heard my brother say "oh my god!"

I said "what's the matter jesse? "

He said "i don't wanna tell you this"

So he took me for a drive.

Please comfort me

And shelter me

For I am weak with love

Comfort me

And shelter me

Well I am weak with love

Love love love.
