Labor Of Love

We've been burning that candle down

Both ends at the very same time

There ain't enough money in this town

To make it worth working so hard

Honey, nothing's worth growing so cold

That you lose the heart and soul

So day by day we've gotta spend some time

On the labor of love

It's the give and take when everything is on the line

It's the labor of love

I want you, I need you

I know we're strong enough

It just takes working on the labor of love

You've been living on empty arms

I've been standing on shaky ground

I've been thinking 'bout who we are

And what love really means

Girl, it's gonna take all we've got

But the real thing always does

So day by day we've gotta spend some time

On the labor of love

It's the give and take when everything is on the line

It's the labor of love

I want you, I need you

I know we're strong enough

It just takes working on the labor of love

I want you, I need you

I know we're strong enough

It just takes working on the labor of love

Two people working on the labor of love

Girl, we're working on the labor of love
