Don't Underestimate Love

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band · Other Songs - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Baby it's no mystery



You don't have to tell me



What you're doing here



With all the stars in your blue eyes



Washed away by disappointed tears



You say another love has left you



Feeling sad and insecure



You'd like to think that it's all worth it



But now you're not so sure



Baby just because it's painful



It doesn't mean it's real



Sometimes we're simply desperate



For something to feel, uh-huh



Don't underestimate love



It's the same old bedtime story



The same old dreams of glory



We all hold on to



It's all so beautifully tragic



So painfully romantic



But so far from the truth



Baby I could slay your dragons



But I'd rather set them free



All I'm really asking is a chance to make you see



There doesn't have to be a struggle



There doesn't have to be a fight



Before you taste the victory



Before you feel it's right, uh-huh



Don't underestimate love



Oh we all look for love in our lives



But sometimes all you've gotta do is just open up your eyes



But does there have to be a reason



Or does there have to be a storm



Before we we look for shelter in each others arms



Baby leave behind this madness



I'll give you tenderness



I don't wanna see you have to settle for less, uh-huh



Don't underestimate love



Don't underestimate love
