Love's Song

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 Twenty 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 [Chorus] 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 [Outro] 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
