He was sitting
on a corner
with a bottle of beer
And the same
shopping cart
he'd been pushing
for years
A big smile on his face
like the first day
of spring
All the people
looked the other way
but they heard him sing
And he sang
"Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing"
He sang
"Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing"
She shot out of Texas
like a bullet from a gun
with a van
full of hippies
and a band on the run
She didn't want
to be famous
She just wanted to play
In old dive bars
and pool halls
she got up on stage
And she sang
"Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing"
And she sang
"Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing"
It's everywhere you look
If you look hard enough
It's really not
too hard to see
Yeah once you put
your arms around it
you can never
get too much
Love is a sweet
sweet thing
yeah, yeah
It's in the smile
of a stranger
in the eyes of a child
on the corner of
a crowded street
It's everywhere around us
It's always growing wild
love is a sweet
sweet thing
Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing
I sang
"Love, love, love
Love is a sweet thing
Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing
I sang
"Love, love, love
Love is a
sweet thing yeah
Lo...ve
Love is a sweet thing"
I sang
"Lo...ve
Love is a
sweet thing"
