Billy Joe Royal - We Had Love lyrics

rate me

We had hope

When I found you I was searechin' for myself

For you were slowly leavin' someone else

We were in that same old state of mind

And we helped each other leave the past behind

We had dreams

At first it all seemed too good to be true

And we tried our best and did all we could do

But if healin' can't be bound, how hard you tried

And a smile can't wipe away the tears inside

(We had love)

The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast

(We had love)

Oh, but sometimes stronger than the kind that lasts

It can lift you up and let you down

While it helps you get your feet back on the ground

We had plans

We made when we believed that we would try

And we held on never dreamin' the dream would die

You brought me back and taught me things I'd never chanced to see

And I hope you'll always smile when you think of me

(We had love)

The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast

(We had love)

Oh, but sometimes stronger than the kind that lasts

It can lift you up and let you down

While it helps you put your feet back on the ground

(We had love)

The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast

(We had love)

But it was stronger than the kind that lasts

It can lift you up and let you down

While it helps you get your feet back on the ground

(We had love)

(We had love)

(We had love)
