It's Only Love

Now just cause the world's come to an end
That's no cause to lose my mind
So the girl went south on me
And left my skivvies in a bind
Yeah but we shall overcome somehow
Mmm, any day now

Fact is I saw my sweetie pie
Of all the indignity
She was doing to some other guy
There were things she never done to me
Alright, so I've hit a patch of hard luck
But that's life, so suck it up

I keep tellin' myself all will be well
If you just take it like a man
Be big, be brave, be bold
Go out like a lamb
Well anyway the thing is
Why should I really give a damn

When it's only love
And let's not get too hung about it
It's only love
I can learn to live without it
She only broke my heart in two
Hell if I'm gonna cry
Well now excuse me while I go off and die

All is fair in love and war
Truth is I oughta thank that young man
For takin' that no good woman off of my hands
So glad it's goodbye
Yeah, I'm so happy I could cry

I keep tellin' myself there are many fish
In the mighty deep blue sea
Just cast my rod and trust in what will be
Anyway the thing is, why take it all so seriously

When it's only love
And let's not get too hung about it
It's only love
I can learn to live without it
She only broke my heart in two
Hell if I'm gonna cry
Well now excuse me while I go off and die

You watch in a year from now
She'll come running back to me
But until such time won't somebody please
Hand me a rope and point me to the highest tree
