Conway Twitty - If We Want Love To Last lyrics
rate meEverybody I know is a looking for love<br />
But they don't know how they give it<br />
Everybody is a looking for more out of life<br />
But they don't know how they live it.<br />
<br />
Like everything else if we don't return it<br />
The love's gonna run out fast<br />
We gotta puttin' more in than we take out<br />
If we want love to last.<br />
<br />
Well, if it don't rain we might go<br />
To church to put in a dollar bill<br />
Shake the preacher's hand and ask him for dinner<br />
But really hope he never will.<br />
<br />
Then we wonder why we don't get ahead<br />
As life keeps on passin' us by<br />
We keep a looking for things that we can't find<br />
And keep on wondering why.<br />
<br />
Everybody I know is a looking for love<br />
But they don't know how they give it<br />
Everybody is a looking for more out of life<br />
But they don't know how they live it.<br />
<br />
Well, we can't afford just to take a little time<br />
To help a poor soul in need<br />
We do just enough to heed our conscience<br />
In the world of hate and greed.<br />
<br />
What we needed for love was the cause of<br />
The color of the mam we walk right past<br />
We gotta puttin' more in than we take out<br />
If we want love to last.<br />
<br />
Everybody I know is a looking for love<br />
But they don't know how they give it<br />
Everybody is a looking for more out of life<br />
But they don't know how they live it...
