Lyrics

Love like this

v1
When I was a baby in this world
I used to cry for everything
I didn't know how to defend
I only knew how to depend
but I heard my mother say to me
I'm gonna rock you up to be
everything a man is supposed to be
everything a man will ever need

Chorus
When you got a love like this my son
you got to hold on tight
when you got a love like this my friend
you got to love it til the end
and don't you ever turn your back on love
or ever give up on a friend
Lennon said that Love is all you need
and with a love like this you'll bleed

v2
The first time I looked into her eyes
I was under the spell
I didn't know what I was in - I only knew it was a sin
but confession did not save my broken heart
I learned that love can be a fire
I learned that love can really burn
chorus

v3
and when I saw that picture on the screen
and felt you kicking deep inside
well I was lost for all my words
I was truly mesmerized
and when I got to hold you in my arms
I knew I'd finally understand
well just how true love really feels
and what it's like to be a man
chorus
