  1. Love So Strong

From the recording Love So Strong

Lyrics

Love can grab you like a torrent; it can be so strong.
If you fight it like a rip tide you won’t last too long.
In a calm before the storm I was floating along. Then you blew in from the south east shining lightning and a love so strong.
There was a part of me that knew that I should be running,
A part of me that wanted only to stay.
There’s no fighting the tide; I wound up by your side.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.

It is true. I was a fool when you lassoed me with a love so strong.
Oh, you corralled me and I knew it was with you that I belonged.
You crooned all your words; made the promise like a smooth love song.
I felt the tug of love that drew me closer to you right or wrong.
When dealt the cards, you hope they add up to something,
And win or lose, you can not refuse; you must play.
I don’t see a way I could have high tailed it away.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.

Seven years brought hopes and fears; years brought feast and famine.
Seven years you were here and there, wherever you were rambling.

Every day I bleed a little bit; I need a bit of love so strong.
How long were you deceiving? I am grieving how you done me wrong.
I tried saving my dimes; but I’m out of luck this time.
Got two kids to feed, the rent to pay; you went away, left me alone.
Oh, you smile at me in that way; it must have meant nothing.
I got a stubborn streak; I would never beg you to stay.
But if you return, you will find the table turned.
So, watch out, partner, now I pack a gun.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.
One can be deceived by believing in a love so strong.
