Thing Called Love

Six foot six he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love
He was the kind of man to gamble on luck
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 hand
But like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love
It can lift you up, it can let you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing’s ever been found
Stronger than love
Most men are like me, they struggle and doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A word called love
But when I see a mother’s tenderness
As she holds her young one close to her breast
Then I thank my God this world’s been blessed
With a thing called love
Can’t see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
But like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love
It can lift you up, it can let you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing’s ever been found
Stronger than love
Stronger than love
