Lyrics
Not For The Faint Of Heart
Roy Hurd
Love is not for the faint of heart
Some say it’s the only light in the dark
It will save some lives and tear others apart
Love is not for the faint of heart
Love is not for the weary or weak
It will render you speechless or inspire you to speak
Fill your heart way too full and cause a permanent leak
Love is not for the weary or weak
Chorus:
Some come to doubt it some can’t live without it
I’ve stood on both sides of that line
I’ve run to it and from it
I’ve written and sung it
I’m still not sure if it’s dammed or divine
In love be careful the promise you pledge
You can’t take it back when you’re out on that ledge
Don’t jump for joy too close to the edge
In love be careful the promise you pledge
If love was a car man it sure would be fast
It’d blow into town and be gone like a flash
You’ll go broke on the maintenance and it will burn through some gas
If love was a car man it sure would be fast
Repeat Chorus:
Love can challenge the strongest of wills
It will make you feel rich but it won’t pay your bills
Make some dreams come true and there’s a few it will kill
Love can challenge the strongest of wills
Love and lust are identical twins
You can’t tell them apart when the passion kicks in
Mistake one for the other and nobody wins
Love and lust are identical twins
Repeat Chorus:
