Love on My Side

I got love on my side

I got love on my side

I don't want to be blue 

So I'll stay true to you

I got love on my side



Well I got down on one knee

And I told ya

That I'd give you my life in this world

Yeah we're all gonna get old and buried in a hole

But my mortal love I give to you



I got love songs

I got songs that make you cry

I got all the things a man can need

I got to see life with two eyes

Yes I got all this love on my side



Well a man can get beaten down

And walk around with a scar

But if he tries to heal

And would never hurt a soul

Please give him the strength of your hand



I got love songs

I got songs that make you cry

I got all the things a man can need

I got to see life with two eyes

Yes I got all this love on my side



Well one day I felt your hand a slippin'

And I felt an unease in your heart

Then the winter killed the spring

And it took your love from me 

And your brown eyes they flew to the dark



I got love songs

I got songs that make you cry

I got all the things a man can need

I got to see life with two eyes

You told me that our love 

That it was not enough

I'd never heard someone say love was not enough

No, I'd never heard someone say love was not enough
