A Thing Called Love

Six foot six he stood on the ground, he weighed 235 pounds But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love He was the kind of a man who would gamble on luck Look you in the eye and never back up But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup because of love You can't see it with your eyes, hold it with your hands Like the world it covers our land Strong enough to rule the heart of any man, this thing called love It can lift you up, it can put you down Take your world and turn it around Ever since time nothing's ever been found that's stronger than love Most men are like me they struggle and doubt Trouble their minds day in and day out Too busy with living to worry about a thing like love But when I see a mother's tenderness As she holds her young close to her breast Then I think "my God this world was blessed With a thing called love You can't see it with your eyes, hold it with your hands Like the wind it covers our land Strong enough to rule the heart of any man, this thing called love It can lift you up, it can put you down Take your world and turn it around Ever since time nothing's ever been found that's stronger than love
