Lyrics
If That Ain't Love
I was walking down the street on a summer's day
I met a man who was there to pray
I asked him why he was a praying so
He said, "young man, I've gotta save your soul"--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d like to know what it is.
I walked into a drug store, there were two little kids
One was smilin' and the other was rich;
I asked him why he was a grinning that way,
He said "cause my friend is gonna pay my way"--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d like to know what it is.
I ran into a woman who was selling dreams
I kinda had the hope I might get one free;
She said she did, but the price was too high,
She gave it to me anyway for me to try--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d like to know what it is.
[Refrain:]
We've all got tickets to the same old place
A one-way ticket for the human race;
The sign on the platform says "follow me,
You've got a new home--it's called Eternity"--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d like to know what it is.
You're probably wondering what this dream is about,
The woman wouldn't tell me and I couldn't find out;
I had to take that dream with a grain faith
At least it gave me time to change my ways--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d like to know what it is.
[Refrain]
I've spent my whole life a chasin' that dream
I still can't define it but I know what it means
Keep your eyes focused and a level head
And never give up till you drop down dead--
(And) If that ain't love, I’d (sure) like to know what it is.
