(There’s Too Much Handed Down)

There’s too much handed down
from LOVER TO LOVER

He handed her a diamond ring
He thought he gave her everything
for what she wanted it was not enough
to secure their life with love

Only took her one good night out of town
to call him up and turn him down
Engaging with the love she just found

There’s too much handed down
from LOVER TO LOVER
when one falls short
of what their givin’ in for
You won’t get one thing
but you will get another
There’s too much handed down
LOVER TO LOVER

She met me at the Moonlight Bar
We bought a couple of beers – She got in my car
We drove on down to the fishing hole
Gave her my favorite shirt when she got cold

She took my heart then soon gave me up
She got the house, the car and most of my stuff
All I have from her is my love

CHORUS

Now a new man has passed the test
Living in her heart he’s got her best
She never felt like this before
She gave up all she was fighting for

It took just one good night out of town
to call her up and turn her down
Engaging with the love he just found

Repeat CHORUS
