I'd love to forget every time that you kissed me I'd love to forget that you're gone

I'd gladly hold back every tear that I'm crying but love has a mind of its own

Love is a ruler the greatest of kings love sets a pion on a throne

Forgetting you darling is not my decision for love has a mind of its own

[ steel ]

I don't want to carry this worrysome heartache I don't want to cry all night long

I wish I could run from the day that I met you but love has a mind of its own

Love is a ruler...

Oh love has a mind of its own
