Mickey Gilley - Couldn't Love Have Picked a Better Place to Die lyrics

rate me

(Curly Putman - Bucky Jones)

Of all the people in the world, why you and I

And with lovers here and everywhere we don't care enough to try

Why couldn't all the hurt we're feeling now have passed us by

Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

And of all the hearts in all the world, why yours and mine

There's so many places love could die, we must leave the earth to find

But it's in our hearts and it's in our bed and it's even, even in your eyes

Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

Somewhere out there there's lovers who want to be free

Why couldn't love have died with them instead of here with you and me

But it's dead and gone all these tears won't bring it back to life

Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

--- Instrumental ---

Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?...
