lyrics

Is That What Love's All About?

There was a time when we dreamed
A time when we were carefree
Sun-kissed hands I held
Summer nights entranced
The thrill of young romance

Forever always we vowed
We'd get by with our without
Without the grace and pride
That you just tossed aside
Is that what love's all about?

Promises, yearnings of a love so serene
Unfettered futures and untangled dreams

We'll trudge through it all
does love not conquer all
Is that what Love's all about?
Is that what love's all about?!

There was a time when we dreamed
A time when we were carefree
Sun-kissed hands I held,
Summer nights entranced,
The thrill of young romance

Forever always we vowed
We'd get by with o-o-or without
Without the grace and pride
That you just tossed aside
Is that what love's all about?

A child's love, like a deep rooted tree needs to thrive
It's stunted and poisoned and bends from the sky

We'll trudge through it all
Does love not conquer all
is that what love's all about?
is that what love's a-l-l about?!

Oh ba-by....so
Come on and tell me all about love
L-o-ve!
Is that what love's all about...
Do do do, do do do, do do dooooo..
Is that what our love w-a-s....a-l-l about...
