A song I began writing as a young heart-broken soldier in 1982.
Lyrics
When love began to find me
and her smile was a sign
I never felt so fine
When love came into my life
and brightened everyday
I begged her to stay
cause
Love was all I needed when my heart was young
Love was all I needed when the day was done
Love would make me whole
Would it tear me apart?
Mama always said love would break my heart
When love grew in my heart
I fell into her arms
filled her with my charms
When love lingered in my soul
God helped me through
cause I believed it true
Love was all I needed when my heart was young
Love was all I needed when the day was done
Love would make me whole
Would it tear me apart?
Mama always said love would break my heart
When love finally went away
for many nights I wept
Then I knew that love and I had met
Then I knew
Then I knew
That love and I had met
