That's What Love's About
Marty Stuart · Other Songs - Marty Stuart
If she starts to cry, then offer her your shoulder
If the world comes crashin' down and leaves her full of doubt
Take her in your arms now that's what love's about
She needs to know you care, she needs to know you're there
If it takes crawling on your knees to live up to your vows
No matter what it takes, we'll work it out somehow
Treat her like a lady, now that's what love's about
She let me have her heart, I hope I never break it
She bared to me her soul, I could hardly take it
She gave me all she had
She said she could do without
Till the end of time
Now that's what love's about
She needs to know you're there
If it takes crawling on your knees to live up to your vows
No matter what it takes, we'll work it out somehow
Treat her like a lady, now that's what love's about
