Lyrics Billy Squier

Billy Squier

L.O.V.E. four letter word

-O- whaddo I know

V-E- she's not comin' back to me

L-O I can't let go

V-E- tell ya what that girl don't mean to me

So you see my friend, love is just a four letter word

Once there were schoolyards with children at play

Once there was England, and one sunny day

One kinda woman for one kinda man

How could I know I was not in her plans

Say love, say love

When I was soarin' you urged me to fly

When I was hungry you fed me your lines

Led me to water, you sang me your song

One day when I woke up I found you were gone

Say love, say love

Say love, say love

Nobody told me, love is just a four letter word

L is for losin' the love that you crave

And O is when it's over and your heart can't explain

V is for the victim, the victim of the crime and

E is every morning when you break down on time

So you see my friend, love is just a four letter word

L-O- I can't let go

V-E- friends all say just let it be

L-O- oo-oo

V-E-

Forget your illusions, forget what they say

'Cause all your dreams of happiness have just blown away

Once in a lifetime your spirit will fly

That's what she told me 'fore she told me goodbye

Love, say love

Love, say love

So you see my friend, love is just a four letter word

L is for losers when fortune turns blue

And O is overcomin' what you know to be true

V is for the vengeance that's left out in the rain and

E is each and every night you crumble in pain

So you see my friend, love is just a four letter word

So you see my friend

I say "Stop, don't say it"

So you see my friend, love is just a four letter word

L-O- whaddo I know

V-E- she's not comin' back to me

L-O- I can't let go

V-E- tell ya what that girl don't mean to me

We're just the victims of the powers that be
