Love is in the air

The Daily Boost (published weekdays) is one of the newsletters of The Raft, the online community of author Phyllis Cole-Dai. We Rafters ride the river of life buoyed by music, poetry, and other arts, plus water-drops of wisdom. Most everything here is free, but patrons (paid subscribers) get some special perks as a gesture of gratitude.

Let this mass choir of 7,000 people remind you: “Love is in the air” . . . for all of us.

You help put it there.

LOVE IS IN THE AIR
John Paul Young & Johannes H. Vandenberg

Refrain:
Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes 

Love is in the air
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea
And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I call out your name 

All is calm and all is bright

Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Oh oh oh

Love is in the air
In the rising of the sun 
Love is in the air
When the day is nearly done
And I don't know if you're an illusion
Don't know if I see it true
But you're something that I must believe in
And you're there when I reach out for you . . .

Refrain
