THE SONG SHOP
The plan is that over time the Song Shop will be fully stocked with songs. Streaming serices will all use the same zongoboid icon for individual songs. But in the Song Shop you will be able to buy singles, later albums of songs with artwork and a whole lot more - available not only for download but also to order on CD, vinyl and tape cassette formats.

LYRICS
THE KNOWLEDGE OF LOVE
I was on the brink of extinction
When suddenly you came for a day
In no time at all I'm notching up a distinction
In having something new I'd like to say
You came from somewhere far away and long ago
But in my heart you've always stayed that much I know
So I won't be afraid about the coming days
For Nature has her ways to move our course in time
And leaves the signs for us to find
That treasure trove
The knowledge of love
Science fact turned out to be fiction
Giants' feet turned out to be clay
I wondered about seeking for some jurisdiction
But no-one could recall the rightful way
How came an angel on a ship of light?
Where will we go?
The wind will take us and the will of God is in the flow
So ‘though you’ll soon be gone
You left me standing on a song
For Heaven leads us on to disregard the rest
Set to the test, we found the best
For which we strove
The knowledge of love
The knowledge of love
The knowledge of love
(ad infinitum…)
“I was inspired first in the title of the song. I felt this was the real knowledge in a world of pretence and artifice. But I could not find the words and music. Time went by. Then old friendships reminded me of the that bond between us humans. Soon came the words. Only recently did I finish the song completely. It also expresses the failure of much which passes for real knowledge, and the disillusionment we can feel. The knowledge of love. That mysterious bond between humans. What knowledge is that? I'm hoping people will ask that question.”
