Love Makes It Right

This is a song about love

The joy of having it

And the agony of being without it

I've heard it said

That all is fair in love and war

And I can see why

Because when the heart gives a command

The mind, soul and body must obey

This is about a young girl

That got hung up on a married man

In all her life

She had been taught

That this is wrong

She tried to shake it loose

But it didn't work

She was in too deep

And soon neighbors began whispering

And that's when her conscience went to work

It got the the point

She would walk the floor at night

Searching for a solution

And one of those nights

She remembered, she heard somewhere

That open confession is good for the soul

So she went to her mother

And confessed

That she was hung up on a married man

And her mother

Being the religious type

Told her these words

What God has joined together

Let no man put asunder

But I think the words she wanted to hear at that time

Two composers summed it all up

They brought it on down

In the words of this song

If you really love him

And you're afraid to give yourself

For fear of people talking

When they find

He belongs to someone else

Even though it's wrong (Wrong)

In the public's eyesight

But if you really love him

Go ahead

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

(Love makes it right)

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

Oh, yeah (Love makes it right)

If you really need him (If you really need him)

And you're afraid to let it show

For fear there'll be a scandal

And you'll be looked upon

As something low

Oh

Girls say it's wrong (Wrong)

The man has a wife

But if you really love him

Go ahead

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

(Love makes it right)

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

Love makes it right (Oh, yeah)

Your friends will say

"There's no future in it at all"

But if your heart is content

You just tell all (You just tell all)

Oh, yeah

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

(Love makes it right)

Go ahead (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

If you know you can (Love makes it right)

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

Love makes it right (Yes, it does)

Love makes it right, love makes it right (He might have a family)

Love makes it right (But if you love him)

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

Love makes it right (There are times)

Love makes it right, love makes it right (Friends might try to tell you now)

Love makes it right (But if you love him)

Love makes it right (Love makes it right, love makes it right)

Go ahead (Love makes it right)
