Bill Anderson - Love Is A Fragile Thing lyrics

rate me

My mama and daddy were celebrating their anniversary

In all their years together I'd never seen them disagree

I said mama what's your secret daddy tell me the truth

They laid a little wisdom on me that I've carried ever since my youth

If you hold on to love too tight it'll crumble and crack

If you hold on to love too loosely it'll fly away and won't come back

Love has a mind of it's own it'll dance like a kite on a string

For something that can be so strong love is a fragile thing love sure is a fragile thing

They said your mama and your daddy ain't perfect son we made our share of mistakes

But we never go to bed when either one's mad no matter how long it takes

We sit up and talk things over till we work everything out

We kiss goodnight and in the morning we've forgotten what we argued about

If you hold on to love...

True love is a treasure treat it like it is

And then one day you can say to your own kids
