[Lyric] When You Say Love (Nick Black (Memphis))

Verse 1
There once was a girl who gave all she had
To change a young man that she knew was bad
And just like you'd think this story ends sad
They married in spite of the world
They had two kids, a yard, four walls and a roof
He said that he loved her, but she needed proof
He spent all her money and all of her youth
She forgave him every time, every time

Chorus
When you say love, what do you mean
Is it a song a little bird sings
Or is it someone who makes you scream
When you say love, what do you mean

Verse 2
For years they lived on in quiet dismay
While the man loved to fight, the woman would pray
For strength and a blessing, at the end of the day
She would kneel at the side of her bed
She said Lord I adore him, he said he loves me too
But where I see a kiss, oh he sees abuse
That’s just how he was raised, and that’s no excuse
But maybe tomorrow he’ll change
Chorus
When you say love, what do you mean
Is it a song a little bird sings
Or is it a man who makes you scream
When you say love, what do you mean

Solo

Chorus
When you say love, what do you mean
Is it a song a little bird sings
Or is it a man who makes you scream
When you say love, what do you mean
