Lyrics

Love Without Anger (2023 Remaster)

[Chorus]

Love without anger

Love without anger

[Verse 1]

He picked up the phone and took the call

A long distance voice just started to bawl

I don't care if you feel small

Love without anger isn't love at all

[Refrain]

Why can't you have your cake and eat it too?

Why believe in things that make it tough on you?

Why scream and cry when you know it's through?

Why fall in love when there's better things to do?

[Chorus]

Love without anger

Love without anger

[Verse 2]

Barbie and Ken in a great big fight

Seems Ken forgot to make it home one night

You know what you arе seeing simply can't be right

Looks like love's bark is worsе than its bite

[Chorus]

Love without anger

[Bridge]

He was young and in love

So he just couldn't see

And it compelled him to ask

"Are you kidding me?

You must be kidding me"

[Chorus]

Love without anger

Love without anger

[Verse 3]

Love without teardrops isn't the same

He asked to be counted out of her game

She thought it him who was so insane

Love is what it does by any other name

[Refrain]

Why can't you have your cake and eat it too?

Why believe in things that make it tough on you?

Why scream and cry when you know it's through?

Why fall in love when there's better things to do?

[Chorus]

Love without anger
