L-O...whaddo I know

V-E...she's not comin' back to me

L-O...I can't let go

V-E...tell ya what that girl don't mean to me

So you see my friend...

LOVE is just a four letter word

Once there were schoolyards with children at play

Once there was England...and one sunny day

One kinda woman for one kinda man

How could I know I was not in her plans

Say love...say love

When I was soarin' you urged me to fly

When I was hungry you fed me your lines

Led me to water...you sang me your song

One day when I woke up I found you were gone

Say love...say love...

Say love...say love...

Nobody told me...LOVE is just a four letter word

L is for losin' the love that you crave

And O is when it's over and your heart can't explain

V is for the victim...the victim of the crime

And E is every morning when you break down on time

So you see my friend...LOVE is just a four letter word

L-O...I can't let go

V-E...friends all say just let it be

L-O...oo-oo

V-E...

Forget your illusions...forget what they say

'Cause all your dreams of happiness

Have just blown away

Once in a lifetime your spirit will fly

That's what she told me 'fore she told me good-bye

Love...say love

Love...say love

So you see my friend...LOVE is just a four letter word

L is for losers when fortune turns blue

And O is overcomin' what you know to be true

V is for the vengeance that's left out in the rain

And E is each and every night you crumble in pain

So you see my friend...LOVE is just a four letter word

So you see my friend...

I say "STOP - DON'T SAY IT"

So you see my friend...LOVE is just a four letter word

L-O...whaddo I know

V-E...she's not comin' back to me

L-O...I can't let go

V-E...tell ya what that girl don't mean to me

We're just the victims of the powers that be
