Larry Norman - Love Is a Commitment lyrics

I am on the left side you are on the right
Even if we both disagree I'm gonna
Love you with all my might
Love is not a ballad on the top ten chart
Love is not a virus from Cupid's dart
Love is not a promise that you tear apart
Love is a commitment heart to heart

Maybe you feel impoverished but
True love can abound
Why don't we expand our love and
Knock these four walls down
Love is not a matter of time and space
Love is not a flower in a golden vase
Love is not a fantasy in silk and lace
Love is a commitment face to face

I know that you've been hurt before
It's sad to comprehend
But baby I love you rich or poor
So don't think this is the end
Love is not a fire like a burning coal
Love is not a high that you can't control
Love is not a moon and a midnight stroll
Love is a commitment soul to soul

Love can be a blessing or full of strife
Love burns like a kiss cuts like a knife
Love goes far beyond a man and wife
Love is a commitment life to life
