A Thing Called Love
Six foot six, he stood on the ground
Weighed 235 pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love
He was the kind of a man who would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love
Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands
Like the world it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love (this thing called love)
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
That's stronger than love
Most men are like me they struggle and doubt
Trouble their minds, day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing like love
But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I think, "My God, this world was blessed
With a thing called love"
Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands
Like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love (this thing called love)
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
That's stronger than love
Weighed 235 pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love
He was the kind of a man who would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love
Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands
Like the world it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love (this thing called love)
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
That's stronger than love
Most men are like me they struggle and doubt
Trouble their minds, day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing like love
But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I think, "My God, this world was blessed
With a thing called love"
Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands
Like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love (this thing called love)
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
That's stronger than love
