Of the small-town daily news
|
it read lilah Thompson had a baby boy
|
Six pound at 10:02
|
But they didn't list the father
|
He was carefully ignored
|
No mention of the scuffle in the corridor
|
But the question still got asked
|
At the nurses' station he was close enough
|
To hear her call his name
|
He said "it isn't fair, but if he knows i'm here
|
Her dad will go insaneIf there's something you can do about it
|
Would you try
|
I just want to hear our baby cry
|
Even if it's through the glass"
|
|
C-Oh, once i a while
|
When the odds are against love
|
And all the events of the heart are on trial
|
If somebody gives
|
And leaves the door open
|
To the power of hope and the wiil to forgive
|
Love lives
|
|
Three suitcases and a baby seat
|
And thier lives are in a car
|
Stealling off to the city they both believe
|
They can make it if they work real hard
|
Three weeks later they were out of the cheap motel
|
Having dinner at the Toco Bell
|
When he gave her the ring
|
|
C-Oh, once i a while
|
When the odds are against love
|
And all the events of the heart are on trial
|
If somebody gives
|
And leaves the door open
|
To the power of hope and the wiil to forgive
|
Love lives
|
|
When the preacher said "if anyone objects
|
Speak now or hold your peace"
|
Every eye in the church turned to watch the man
|
Who rose up from his seat
|
But when he said
|
"I'm sorry for the things I didn't understand
|
Can I give you to this man"
|
Everybody cried
|
|
C-Oh, once i a while
|
When the odds are against love
|
And all the events of the heart are on trial
|
If somebody gives
|
And leaves the door open
|
To the power of hope and the wiil to forgive
|
Love lives
|
Love Lives
|
