Love Ain't Nothing But a Four Letter Word (Demo)

She was waiting alone at the station Praying for her train to arrive Thinking 'bout her destination, Her tattered bag held all that she had in life She turned her back on her family She said goodbye to her friends She turned her back on a married man When she took off that wedding band But through her crying she said I don't need this Through the tears she said it's all a waste It ain't nothing like it is in the movies Here a hit is just a slap in the face Chorus: And it's no big secret so forget all you heard 'Cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word For some it's for better, for us it's for worse Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Nothing This time he said was the last time Last time he said just the same In your heart you know that they'll be a next time That your battered bones would have to explain Now your bruises can't ride on religion Since you swore it was for better or worse But how many times must you lay down and say It's something that I deserved It ain't no big secret so forget all you heard 'Cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word For some it's a blessing, for some it's a curse Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Forget about your rosary beads To take you through your time of need You'll pray to God to cross that line And take it one day at a time Still you try and make some sense of All the things that he had said Was there something so wrong to turn eyes so blue To fiery eyes of red again? Chorus There's no big secret so forget all you heard Cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word For some it's a blessing, for some it's a curse But love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
