Quarterflash - Say What You Want About Love lyrics

Well, you talk about love
Like it's some kind of weakness
Laugh at dreamers - call them fools
And you mock all romantics
Any sign of sweetness
Make no commitments play by no rules

Oh, say what you want about love
But it's better than nothing
Oh, say what you want about love
But, it's better than suffering, baby
Well, I been where you've been
No, love's not easy
It broke me down and I had to crawl
And I dug a hole where no one could reach me
But a life alone ain't no life at all

Oh, say what you want about love
But, it's better than nothing
Oh, say what you want about love
But, it's better than suffering, baby

Say what someone did to take you apart
Say what they put you through
Say what they used when they fused your heart
Did they burn you bad and desert you?

Well you look at forgiveness as
A kind of surrender
Mock the faithful and those who care
And you look down on mercy
And all that's tender
Well, someday baby you'll need somebody there

Oh, say what you want about love
But, it's better than nothing
Oh, say what you want about love
But, it's better than suffering, baby
