Lyrics


When Love Gets In The Way

Written by: Dan Howard

VERSE 1: I'm willing to wait for you
I've been waiting my whole life through
and now, you say you need your space
But it's getting tough for you to hide
The way that you feel inside
When I can see it in your face
PRE-CH:
Love ain't convenient, it ain't well timed
But when it touches a heart like mine
I don't think things over
CHORUS:
There's nothing you can say
when love gets in the way
It's alright, it's okay
When love gets in the way
VERSE 2:
You say You've got so much to do
I'm a busy person, too
But I'll make it work for you
You can't run, you can't hide
From the way that you feel inside
When I see it in your face
PRE-CH 2:
Love ain't convenient
It ain't well timed
But when it calls you just get in line
Don't even think it over
Just don't think things over
-CHORUS-

BRIDGE:
I don't mind, I feel fine
'cause it's alright, Baby
I don't mind, I feel fine
'cause it's alright, it's alright
with you and me
-SOLO-
CHORUS:
It's alright, it's okay
When love gets in the way
There's nothing you can do or say
When love gets in the way
