Love Is Everything

[Verse 1]

Maybe it was to learn how to love

Maybe it was to learn how to leave

Or maybe it was for the games that we played

Maybe it was to learn how to choose

Maybe it was to learn how to lose

Or maybe it was for love that we made

[Chorus]

Love was everything they said it would be

And love made sweet and sad the same

But love forgot to make me too blind to see

You're chickening out aren't you?

You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum

I can't wait for you to make the whole kingdom come

So I'm leaving

[Verse 2]

Maybe it was to learn how to fight

Maybe it was to lessen in pride

Or maybe it's just nature's way

Maybe it was to learn how to laugh

Maybe it was to learn how to cry

Or maybe it was for the love we made

[Chorus]

Love was everything they said it would be

Love made sweet and sad the same

And love forgot to make me too blind to see

You're chickening out aren't you?

You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum

I can't wait for you to make the whole kingdom come

So I'm leaving

[Bridge]

First I turn to you

Then I turns away

So you try to hurt me back

Oh it breaks your body down

So you try to love bigger

Better still

But it, it's too late

[Chorus]

So take a lesson from the strangeness you feel

And know you'll never be the same

And find it in your heart to kneel down and say

I gave my love didn't I?

And I gave it big, sometimes

And I gave it in my own sweet time

I'm just leaving

I'm just leaving
