Love songs, sweet love songs
|
Love songs, sweet, sweet, sweet love
|
|
Hasn't every way to write a love song been written
|
Hasn't every way to tell the story been told
|
Hasn't everyone been moved and soothed by the melodies
|
Aren't there other tales to be told, other stories to unfold
|
Haven't we anything else to say
|
Or are we merely trapped to find another way
|
to say the same things
|
Don't we have other thoughts, other dreams
|
It seems every time I search that quiet place
|
I find myself with you face to face in my mind
|
There's nothing left to say except "I love you"
|
|
Hasn't every way to sing a love song been sung
|
Hasn't every way to phrase the message been done
|
Haven't all the great ones sung the melodies that've wooed you
|
Aren't there other songs to be sung with messages untold
|
Seems that we've lost our will to challenge
|
the mind and be a unique kind of artist and
|
friend, a teacher or prophet by pen
|
But wait, don't get me wrong, I love a good,
|
good love song
|
One that gets me real good when I close my eyes
|
I only seem to find the words "I love you"
|
"I love you", I can't help myself
|
And as long as you keep needin' them, I'll
|
keep servin' 'em till my last breath
|
No, I'm not alone, there're others like you and me
|
'Cause there's always someone who wants to
|
tell their story of need
|
And it's a simple story, one as old as time
|
And we all know that sometimes love don't have no reason or rhyme
|
Hingin' on to those love songs
|
