Lyrics

THAT’S THE THING ABOUT LOVE
KERRY PATRICK CLARK

Some people claim that love is overrated
But I don’t believe that’s true
Only a broken heart can harbor hatred
So let me say this to you

As you’re standing at the altar
Take a breath and let me sing
This is more than just a marriage
It’s a ride you’re entering

CHORUS
There’ll be ups there’ll be downs
You’ll get dizzy spinning ‘round
There’ll be times you’ve had enough
There’ll be fast there’ll be slow
You will stop and then you’ll go
Just to see if you’ve got the stuff
That’s the thing about
That’s the thing about love

There is a secret for those who have been married
For more years than you are old
Selfishly I took the time to listen
And here is what I was told

You’ve got to listen more than talking
Give more than you take
It’s not the time it takes to finish
But times that take your breath away

CHORUS
There’ll be ups there’ll be downs
You’ll get dizzy spinning ‘round
There’ll be times you’ve had enough
There’ll be fast there’ll be slow
You will stop and then you’ll go
Just to see if you’ve got the stuff
That’s the thing about
That’s the thing about love

May the road rise up to greet you
May the breeze be at your back
May the Father hold and help you
Find in each those things you lack

CHORUS
There’ll be ups there’ll be downs
You’ll get dizzy spinning ‘round
There’ll be times you’ve had enough
There’ll be fast there’ll be slow
You will stop and then you’ll go
Just to see if you’ve got the stuff
That’s the thing about
That’s the thing about love
