Love, Love, Love

My dad, he taught me not to spend a dollar if you only got a dime
But if you do, he said, call me anytime
Ma read me the Lord's Prayer every night at bedtime
Now close your eyes, she'd say
I'll sit here by your side

And I guess that's love, love, love
Love, love, love

I come home from work at 10 to 5
We eat dinner at four
You say you're tired, you don't talk much anymore
But, every now and then you dress up, we go dancing at the bar
I pull you close
Don't push your luck, you'll say
Who do you think you are?

But, then you'll smile just like when we we're in love, love, love
Love, love, love

And it's hard to make the good things last
The days just pass
And we do a lot for love

People on the platform, waiting on the northbound train
Some are waiting on a friend, others leaving town again
The days are shorter now, another summer's gone
And while the world keeps spinning round, you and I keep holding on

Falling in and out of love
