A Love Song (Dec 1981) - Kenny Rogers

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
