(You see) love takes sacrifice and compromise   Fail to do so and in it lies its demise   But now that you're around   Love found       Verse 1:      Was it love   Or did they drop the ball   Are you equipped to make that call    And how many loves left standing tall   Tell it to a broken heart   That's falling apart   In life   We try to do what's right   When love comes in your life    Like a thief in the night (2 Peter 3:10)   And can so easily leave the same   But was it in vain (no)    Ah two people meant for each other    Love that is greater than a brother   G-d brings two together   In a love that will last until forever   But if they chose to let go   How can love grow   If they choose to let go   Then where can love go       Chorus:      They hurt love   With their deeds   And in the process   Sow the seeds   Love is not a labor   Love is not a duty   When you fail to see its blessing   You miss its beauty   Love lost   You see love takes sacrifice and compromise   Fail to do so and in it lies its demise   But now that you're around   Love found      Verse 2:       (I say) How do you reconcile   Losing love all the while   Down to the letter   You pray that things get better   You remember them with bittersweet tears   And silent stares   Cause through the years   Your heart doesn't clear the memory   And you don't think of them as an enemy       Repeat chorus:       Bridge:       Oh love   A beggar's purse   A blessing or a curse   How it will end   Will all depend   On you two   So, to those who cry for a love lost   And take the time to ponder its cost   To you I say   Things will get better one day       Spoken:      I have come to this conclusion   Without illusion   That I have no palpable answer to this question   Only a hard learned lesson   Love doesn't fail   People fail   A beggar's fare   Sacrifice a love   For a few that don't compare   And love will leave you    Standing there   So here's your second chance   To make things right   And this time   I hope you see the light   I will remember your sins no more (Hebrews 8:12)   Only what this love is for   Love found       Now that you're around   Love found   Love found   Love found
