Love's Song

Home was a joke, but it wasn't worth a laugh

Love's heart was broken, and the times were bad

She felt just like a ghost in the back of the class

Her dead-eyed stares through the window glass

♪

It's a whole lot of hurt for a green-eyed girl

With her and only her, and up against the world

Her schoolyard-dreams and her bouncing curls

She liked taking off her necklace just to count the pearls

Every other corner could've been third base

Like shе's almost home and it's almost safe

It's a memory so sweet, shе could almost taste

Before she bit down, something pulled it away

I don't know why, but it's the feeling I'd find

Like maybe God really left Love behind

♪

I don't know why, but it's the feeling I'd find

Like maybe God really left Love behind

High school hits a little harder than that

It gives every other girl another reason to laugh

Love felt just like a joke in the back of the class

The time moved slow, and the notes got passed

♪

It's a whole lot of hurt for a lonelier child

I was always busy wishing I could see her smile

Those whitewashed walls and the unswept tiles

20 minutes on the bus felt like a hundred miles

♪

Now in every other corner, I can see her face

In a homeroom class, day after picture day

They're all still talking like they've anything to say

She left us all thinking it was us in the way

I don't know why, but it's the feeling I'd find

Like maybe God really left Love behind

I don't know why, but it's the feeling I'd find

Like maybe God really left Love behind

I don't know why, but it's the feeling I'd find

Like maybe God really left Love behind

Maybe God really left Love behind
