A Song About Love

[Verse]
Oh, my love, look what the day's done.
It started off sweet . . .
How have I ended up 
Feeling so achingly incomplete?

Everything I ever wanted
Was right here, between my fingers.
I guess the world must be wicked after all—
It took your smile and made it sting.

[Chorus]
This song is about love, 
How it hurts you to your knees,
Makes, "Come home soon,
"Baby, won't you?,"
Turn to, "Please! Please!"

[Verse]
And what am I 
Supposed to love now?
Must be the pain
Since there's nothing else.

I'm trying to be proud,
But the heart knows how to break:
Where you're strongest,
It just adds memories.

[Chorus, soft]
This song is about love.
It makes your prayers into fragile things,
When what you want most,
It won't let you keep.

[Chorus, loud]
Said, this song is about love,
Makes a man say the strangest things,
Like, "Hallelujah!,"
And, "I want it again."
