When love is love, don't let it go away
My love is love, it won't go away
Don't ever let anybody go
Why's it so hard to hold, how come I never know?

I'm the traveling gentleman, I knew I would come back again
I swear my days were not lost on me

When love is love, don't let it go away
My love is love, it won't go away

So sorry that I couldn't put the past away
I was hoping, hoping I could hold you all the same
That I was broke and I was like a paper-weight
Holding nothing down from getting blown away

When we know we're not gonna take it all the way
We'll just have to learn to give it in a different kind of way

I know about the human heart, I have been watching yours
Forgive me for the mess I left, but?

Too sweet for my mouth, too soft for my hands
So sorry that I couldn't put the past away
I was hoping, hoping but I had you all the same
Kinda when you called to hear me calling out your name
Won't you help me keep it open, hell you want to stay

When love is love, don't let it go away
My love is love, it won't go away
Don't ever let anybody go
Why's it so hard to hold, how come I never know?
