Act of Love (feat. Neil Young) Lyrics
The port of love was in the future
Around the corner, and over the hill
The act of love was slowly pounding, slowly pounding, slowly pounding...
The Holy War was slowly building
And we're all sqeezing from the plane cruisin'
Seek reward in the ever after, ever after, ever after...
Don't want to leave you baby
Don't wanna act like that
Don't wanna ever hurt you baby, treat you bad...yeah...
You know I'll always help you baby
I travel, I put you back
You know I'll always help you baby, here's my blood, call me sometime...
Act of love (4x)
Did I keep you at the demonstration
With your friends, fucked up all their days
A friend at heart, and then we'll stay here...
Swingin' after, but your friends knew...
The fruit of love is in the future
Around the corner and over the hills
The act of love is slowly poundin', slowly poundin', slowly poundin'...
Act of love (8x)
Around the corner, and over the hill
The act of love was slowly pounding, slowly pounding, slowly pounding...
And we're all sqeezing from the plane cruisin'
Seek reward in the ever after, ever after, ever after...
Don't wanna act like that
Don't wanna ever hurt you baby, treat you bad...yeah...
I travel, I put you back
You know I'll always help you baby, here's my blood, call me sometime...
With your friends, fucked up all their days
A friend at heart, and then we'll stay here...
Swingin' after, but your friends knew...
Around the corner and over the hills
The act of love is slowly poundin', slowly poundin', slowly poundin'...

i haven't heard this song, but both neil young and peral jam kick ass! moe people need to give young credit he is a great musican.
iwell queen have you listened to mirrorball which is neil young with his backing band being PEarl jam
actually, this song is mislabelled, it is a Neil Young song.
adam - it is a Neil Young original, but if you compare the lyrics, it looks like PJ's version was changed up a bit. I've been lucky enough to see PJ play this song live twice, including once with Neil in Toledo and the most recent time they played it in DC.

I think they've played it a total of 8 times in the 15 years since they collaborated with Neil on this version.

@adam1986 i think u must be right. the line about the "demonstration" is definitely from his generation. i was in grade school when "heart of gold" and "old man" had airplay. if u can find his album" tonite's the night" i think that would inspire u to love his older music. dolly parton had a hit with one of his songs in the 70's and he even put out a country album in the late 80's which i still have on cassette if u love rock then you've got to give him credit he's been going since the 60's...
