A Thing Called Love Lyrics

Six foot six he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love

He was the kind of man that would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him cryin' like a little whipped pup
Because of love

Can't see it with your eyes hold it in your hand
But like the wind that covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love

It can lift you up, it can let you down
Take your world turn it all around
Ever since time nothings ever been found
Stronger than love

Most men are like me they struggle in doubt
They trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with livin' to worry about
A word called love

But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Than I thank God this world's been blessed
With a word called love

Can't see it with your eyes hold it in your hand
But like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love

It can lift you up, it can let you down
Take your world turn it all around
Ever since time nothings ever been found
Stronger than love
