Story Behind The Song
This song is about getting out of your own way in order to achieve your goal and using the power of love to guide you there.
Song Description
The song begins quietly with violin and cello sustained under a quiet vocal. The exotic hand percussion begins percolating in the second verse and builds to a rousing belly dance chorus with an amazing gypsy violin solo (this violinist played with Sting). The bridge breaks down to just vocals and percussion and ends with a crescendoing double chorus.

Lyrics
SWEETEST FRUIT
VERSE:
Life around us is so colorful
If you want to taste its sweetest fruit
If you want it, you must take the bitter too
VERSE 2:
When you find it, give it all your love
Don't try to make it happen
And don't think of what you haven't got
When you find it, just give all your soul and heart
CHORUS: All is love and love is us
All the world, the world is love
You either give, or you can't get enough
We all revolve, revolve around love
VERSE 3:
Once you've got it, treat it like a treasure
Don't forget it, and don't take it for granted ever
'Cause now you've got it, so giving your thanks will just bring you more
CHORUS: All is love ...
BRIDGE: What you desire is what you can't hold
For it to come to life, you just let it - go.
CHORUS: All is love ...
