What Do I Need With Love

Old friend I've seen the burdens of these times and all the things you'd dreamt of being weigh you down No, friend it doesn't seem like life is working out the way you'd dreamt and when you look around The promises of better days don't heal the way they should What's the use in going on when life ain't all that good? And he said What do I need with love when I can't understand the love that's standing in my face? And what do I need with dreams when I can't even find the answers to the ones that kept me running right in place? Oh, friend I've been to places of the heart and know that I could never live a second life But, friend I've known a couple different truths that kept my life from slipping further in decline The promises of better days don't heal the way they should but what's the use in giving up when life can be so good? And he said What do I need with love when I can't understand the love that's standing in my face? And what do I need with dreams when I can't even find the answers to the ones that kept me running right in place? We're all just livin' to do the best we can despite what this life takes I know your tryin' you know I'm tryin' but we've all got to keep on fighting 'til it breaks What do I need with love when I can't understand the love that's standing in my face? And what do I need with dreams when I can't even find the answers to the ones that kept me running right in place? What do I need with love when I can't understand the love that's standing in my face? And what do I need with dreams when I can't even find the answers to the ones that kept me running right in place? What do I need with love, ooo ooo (ooo ooo ooo) (Oh what do I need with love?) What do I need with love, ooo ooo (ooo ooo) Ahh ahh ahh aaaaaahhhh
