The Glory Of Love

"This is a song I've been singing for a long time.

It's like an old friend. But, you know, I think it, it's only

Recently that I discovered what it's really about."



You've got to give a little, take a little,

And let your poor heart break a little.

That's the story of, that's the glory of love.



You've got to laugh a little, cry a little,

Until the clouds roll by a little.

That's the story of, that's the glory of love.



As long as there's the two of us,

We've got the world and all it's charms.

And when the world is through with us,

We've got each others arms.



You've got to win a little, lose a little,

Yes, and always have the blues a little.

That's the story of, that's the glory of love.

That's the story of, that's the glory of love.
