Well, I guess you' have to learn it all the hard way
'Cause you never get it right first time around
Get a little recognition, head for Broadway
You're spendin' all your love on a paper crown
Take it, save it
'Fore you lose it
Take it, save it
'Fore it dies
Take it, save it
'Fore you lose it
Take it, save it
'Fore it dies
And you hide behind your casual conversation
Thinking that it hides the way you feel
But you used to have a burning love within you
Now you're not so sure that it was real
Love is the first thing you lose
When you leave it to just how you feel
Love is the last thing you find
When you're tellin' your love goodbye
When you find the things you do don't mak you happy
'Cause you're always fallin' short of what you planned
Well, the loving hand of God is there to guide you
If you'll only take the time to take his hand
