What About Love

Suzanne Mondoux · 15 June 2020

It’s where I want to be, oh ya my baby When you turn away you leave me cold I turn away when they speak of you, my love So close we were without a doubt Now it’s an old story

What about love in this story Does love get old What’s made this so What part of me grew too old for you

I’m but a young soul, young at heart What about love in this part of me, part of you And when you walk away you never look back I’m standing there naked and alone on the shores of life Absent in a place forced to go, to live alone

What about love at the end of our story Baby there’s no need for an ending in sight Not long ago I was all you wanted, said you loved me What happened to our story, what about love No glimmer of hope for you and me, you say quietly

What about love in this story of you and me Somewhere in there something remains Something alive to what was said and done I love you baby, even when you turn away All that is you remains with me Never too old a story, its all about love

What about love in the history of our life So clumsy at times, so fun at times, so nice at times It’s always been you and me For today can we pretend there is no yesterday and no tomorrow Can we be in this story of love for now

What about love never gets old What about love like no other for me and you
