Lyrics The Oak Ridge Boys

The Oak Ridge Boys

If There Were Only Time For Love

If all you had to do each day

Is wake up and go out to play

Shake the hand of all the world

Especially every boy and girl.

And if the only tears you shed

Were tears of joy upon your bed

That made the sea of your love grow

To flowers for the world to know

And if the world would do the same

Life could have a brand new name

The one we've all been dreaming of

If there were only, only time for love

The problems that you're facing now

Would vanish into air somehow

There'd be no one to bring you harm

You'd walk together arm in arm

And peace would reign across the Earth

And Eve could have her Adams worth

And every man would have a smile

And ladies kisses last a while.

We could take each other's hand

Be the others biggest fan

And sing a song about a dove

If there were only, only time for love

I think Jesus lived and died

So we would not be crucified

And all we really have to do

Is you love me and I love you.

If he should return someday

Pass your door along his way

Come in and sit down a while

And see the beauty in your smile.

Think how very proud you'd be

If love was all there was to see

Just like His Father's house above

Where there is only, only time for love
