Love Songs (Duke George)

Love songs, sweet love songs Love songs, sweet, sweet, sweet love Hasn't every way to write a love song been written And hasn't every way to tell the story been told Hasn't everyone been moved and soothed by the melodies Aren't there other tales to be told, other stories to unfold Haven't we anything else to say Or are we merely trapped to find another way To say the same things Don't we have other thoughts, other dreams Girl it seems every time I search that quiet place I find myself with you face to face In my mind there's nothing left to say except, "I love you" Love songs, sweet love songs (I love you) Hasn't every way to sing a love song been sung And hasn't every way to phrase the message been done Haven't all the great ones sung the melodies that've wooed you And aren't there other songs to be sung with messages untold Seems that we've lost our will to challenge the mind And be a unique kind of art it's been for me Oh a teacher or prophet by pen Girl but wait, don't get me wrong, I love a good good love song One that gets me real good, when I close my eyes I only seem to find the words "I love you" "I love you", girl I can't help myself (Love songs, sweet love songs) And as long as you keep needin' them I'll keep servin' 'em till my last breath (Love songs, sweet, sweet, sweet love) No, I'm not alone, there're others like you and me 'Cause there's always someone who wants To tell their story of need It's a simple story, one as old as time (Love songs, sweet love songs) And we all know that sometimes Love don't have no reason or rhyme (Love songs, sweet, sweet, sweet love) Hingin' on to those love songs Oh love, oh love, oh love Love songs, sweet love songs
