Love Said Not So

Life was bitter to the core
There was nothing to live for until love came
And even second times around
Happiness could not be found until love came
I was left all alone — My heart was breaking
Thought was my own — Soul was aching
Tears covered me — Weeping through the whole night
And I need some relief — Joy comes in the morning
I’ve been searching for — Many years now
The key to life’s door — I need to know how
Brought to my knees — Savior can you help me
And was led to believe — A failure I was to be
Well, His love showed me, love said not so
Even with the odds against me
Love showed me, love said not so
Without a reason or cause
Peace and joy makes no pause until love came
Having no hope at all
And not another one to call until love came
I was left alone — My heart is breaking
Thought was my own — Soul was aching
Tears covered me — Weeping through the whole night
And I need some relief — Joy comes in the morning
I’ve been searching for — Many years now
The key to life’s door — I need to know how
Brought to my knees — Savior can you help me
And was led to believe — A failure I was to be
Well, His love showed me, love said not so
Even with the odds against me
Love showed me, love said not so
Keep on holding on
Love showed me, love said no
Love told me don’t let go
Love showed me, love said not so
Love said not so
That’s what he told me
He told me not so
Hey, I want to tell everybody
You are my love and my prize possession
Because of you I’ve got pride and joy
Can you help me, brother
You are my love and my prize possession
(Love showed me)
Because of you I’ve got pride and joy
(Love said not so)
Oh, can you say it again (Lord)
Tell the world it’s love everlasting, hope
Everlasting, joy everlasting
I’ve got joy
You see I’ve got love everlasting, hope
Everlasting, joy everlasting
I’ve got joy
