A Love Song

Why do people cry

When they hear the word goodbye

In a love song?

Tears are sure to fall

When you know they gave it all

In a love song.

Somehow two lovers get a chance

At a beautiful romance

And you wish it could be you.



'Cause everybody's needing

What the singers all are singing

In a love song.



It can tear you apart

'Cause a word can break a heart

In a love song.

They say all the things you feel

And they make it sound so real

In a love song.

It seems that everything they say

Is said in such a way

That we believe it's true.



'Cause everybody's needing

What the singers all are singing

In a love song.



Each of us know

There's no guarantee

We'll ever find love.

And in the songs that we share

The heartache is there

To remind us.

New love brings a thrill

And we know it always will

In a love song.



Happiness can leave

But it helps if we believe

In a love song.

There's a part of you and me

In every memory

That tells us who we are.



And everybody's needing.
