LOVIN' AND LOSIN'
What if I lose you
And you find another
Another man takes you
As his friend and lover
Would I heed wisdom
Comin’ down from above
'Tis better to lose
Than to live without love.
|
Would I be noble
And suffer with a grin
Such slings and arrows
Of outrageous fortune
One thing’s for certain
He wasn’t wearin’ my shoes
Nobody’d write those words
If he’d ever met you.
|
CHORUS
Lovin’ and losin’
Is the way it must be
He wrote it
We live it
Like life’s poetry
But if it means losin’
The one I’ve been lovin’
This Romeo
Might play out the scene.
|
I’ve fought the good fight
I’ve conquered snowy peaks
I’m strong like Samson
Just one thing makes me weak
You are my temple
My pillar of love
Your sanctuary
Makes me meek like a dove.
|
CHORUS
Lovin’ and losin’
Is the way it must be
Samson and
Delilah
Was no mystery
‘Cause if it means losin’
The one I’ve been lovin’
I see the temple
Tumblin’ down on me.
|
You are my Cleo
My Queen of the Nile
You rule my emotions
I live for your smile
Our love is classic
Like Cairo and Rome
At sea I wander
Your love brings me home.
|
CHORUS
Lovin’ and losin’
Is the way it must be
They’ve loved
And they’ve lost
Down through history
But if it means losin’
The one I’ve been lovin’
Our final chapter’s
The one they'll all read.
