A Thing Called Love

Six foot six stood on the ground, weighted 235 pounds

But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love

He was the kind of man who would gamble on love

Look you in the eye and never back up

But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup because of love

Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands

Like the rules that govern our land

Strong enough to rule the heart of every man, this thing called love

It can lift you up, it can put you down

Take your world and turn it all around

Ever since time nothing's ever been found stronger than love

Men like me they worry and doubt

Trouble their minds day in and day out

Too busy a livin' to worry about a thing called love

And then I see a mother's tenderness

As she holds her young close to her breast

Then I say thank God this world will win with the thing called love
