I Prefer Your Love Lyrics
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
(Little baby, on your knees
Because the world has got you down)
Name tag tourists, sick at the sight of them
Tired, walking the sidewalk in spite of them
As my head, it moves from East to West
Mother, won't you open your arms and
Forgive me of all these bad thoughts
I plant into the faces in the fog
But all the good in me is because of you
It's true
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
(Little baby, on your knees
Because the world has got you down)
King sized country wearing your worries out
Endless heroes eat by the pylons
As the careless sun sets on the West
Sure as mother licking a finger
Wipe the blush and smudge from my cheek
And wonder what will become of your little one
All the good in me is because of you
It's true
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
(Little baby, on your knees
Because the world has got you down)
Because the world has got you down)
Tired, walking the sidewalk in spite of them
As my head, it moves from East to West
Mother, won't you open your arms and
Forgive me of all these bad thoughts
I plant into the faces in the fog
It's true
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
Because the world has got you down)
Endless heroes eat by the pylons
As the careless sun sets on the West
Sure as mother licking a finger
Wipe the blush and smudge from my cheek
And wonder what will become of your little one
It's true
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
Because the world has got you down)

I feel like this is about the love of a mother compared to the fake, meaningless love of others. No matter what you do, or what happens, and Mother's love will never fade, and never change.
A beautiful song of a very real tangible love. a reminder to prioritise the reality of the present and not over glorify the past or future
