If It Wasn't Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Funny sometimes how you think
You found someone
Out of all the others you recall
He stays a little longer on your mind
The only one
When life becomes the hardest place to fall
If it wasn't love at all
Then what were all those feelings and why
If it wasn't love at all
Can't I just go on dreamin'
Starting out at zero we built it up
Built it up
And made it more than
Most will ever do
Maybe it was just in times of need
We stayed in touch
But not enough to last one whole life through
If it wasn't love at all
Then what were all those feelings and why
If it wasn't love at all
Can't I just go on dreamin' tonight
Living for you now is all I want
Who but you could ever really change
This changing of mine
Loving you I thought
That I had found the other side
If it wasn't love at all
What were all those feelings and why
If it wasn't love at all
Can't I just go on dreamin'
Can't I just go on dreamin' tonight
