love lost lyrics

Love Lost
Verse 1:

Was it love
Or did they drop the ball
Are you equipped to make that call
And how many loves left standing tall
Tell it to a broken heart
That's falling apart
In life we try to do what's right
When love comes in your life
Like a thief in the night
And can so easily leave the same
But was it in vain
Two people made for each other
In a love that's greater than that of a brother
God brings two people together
In a love that will last until forever
But if they choose to let go
How can love grow
And if they choose to let go
Then where can love go

Chorus:

They hurt love
With their deeds
And in the process
Sow the seeds
Of love's demise
Then comes the surprise
Love is not a labor
Love is not a duty
When you fail to see its blessing
You miss its beauty
Love lost

Verse 2:

How do you reconcile
Losing love all the while
Down to the letter
You pray that things get better
You think of them with bittersweet tears
And silent stares
Cause through the years
Your heart doesn't clear the memory
And you don't think of them as an enemy

Repeat chorus

Bridge:

Love
A beggar's purse
A blessing or a curse
Cause how it ends
Will all depend on you two
So, to those who cry for a love lost
And take the time to ponder its cost
To you I say
Things will be better one day
Love lost

Spoken:

I have come to this conclusion
Without illusion
That I have no palpable answer to this question
Only a hard learned lesson
Love doesn't fail
People fail
A beggar's fare
Sacrifice a love
For a few that don't compare
And love will leave you standing there
So here's your second chance
To make things right
And this time I hope you see the light
I will remember your sins no more
Only what this love is for
Love found
