Love Is What You Make It
And old wiseman saw me one day
He said, "Son let me walk you (heyy) along the way
You look blue and I'm sure that I will discover (heyy)
That the thing that's making you blue
The thing that's making you blue
Is an untrue lover" (is an untrue lover)
Yes it is
It's an untrue lover (it's an untrue lover) hmm
I told him love was bad and had made me blue
He said, "Son let me tell ya, it's just ain't true
You've been hurt (you've been hurt)
And you don't know how to take it, no, no
It ain't never the love that's bad
It ain't never the love that's bad
It's the way that you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it, yes it is
(It's the way that you make it)
He said, "Why oh why can't people learn
To see love like they see it
How can they treat love so bad
And it's make more yet to be good, it can't be
They fool around, they play around
Like love is just some kind of game
Then when someone's heart gets broken
Love has to take the blame"
He said, "You're hurt and you sad
And I know that's right
You can't eat all day, you can't sleep all night
This I must spill, this endless thought
You don't know how to break it, no, no
But it's never the love that's bad
It ain't never the love that's bad
It's the way that you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Not knowing anything (it's the way that you make it)
It's just what you make it baby (it's the way that you make it)
Yeah-yeah-yeah (it's the way that you make it)
That's just what you make it baby (it's the way that you make it)
It ain't no game (it's the way that you make it)
It ain't no shame (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it
He said, "Son let me walk you (heyy) along the way
You look blue and I'm sure that I will discover (heyy)
That the thing that's making you blue
The thing that's making you blue
Is an untrue lover" (is an untrue lover)
Yes it is
It's an untrue lover (it's an untrue lover) hmm
I told him love was bad and had made me blue
He said, "Son let me tell ya, it's just ain't true
You've been hurt (you've been hurt)
And you don't know how to take it, no, no
It ain't never the love that's bad
It ain't never the love that's bad
It's the way that you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it, yes it is
(It's the way that you make it)
He said, "Why oh why can't people learn
To see love like they see it
How can they treat love so bad
And it's make more yet to be good, it can't be
They fool around, they play around
Like love is just some kind of game

It ain't never the love that's bad
It's the way that you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it (it's the way that you make it)
Not knowing anything (it's the way that you make it)
It's just what you make it baby (it's the way that you make it)
Yeah-yeah-yeah (it's the way that you make it)
That's just what you make it baby (it's the way that you make it)
It ain't no game (it's the way that you make it)
It ain't no shame (it's the way that you make it)
Love is just what you make it
