Love Like That Songtext

von Pat Green

Check out those kids over there in that parking lot
They're probably drinking beer and smoking a lot
I doubt that they mean anybody any harm

Ain't that old man Fredrick's daughter
Breaking every rule that her daddy ever taught her
With a wild eyed boy on the hood of that pickup truck?

Yeah, but who are we to talk?
Didn't you walk that very same walk
Not so many years ago?

With a love like that we were young and true
With a love like that the bottle nine to two
You wore my leather jacket
To the homecoming football game

With a love like that we crawled in the back
With a love like that we move away too fast
I hope nobody tells you it ain't gonna last
'Cause there's a beauty in a love like that

Oh the families well they have their doubts
There was money on whether we'd ever work out
Come to think of it baby, we ain't never been paid

I guess we're just like those kids
We could've listened but we never did
Sneaking out the house just praying
And hoping that we wouldn't get caught

I remember those long walks, yeah
When you swore all we were gonna do is talk
Not so many years ago

With a love like that you were never alone
With a love like that we built our home
With a front porch swing
And a couple of kids in the yard

With a love like that you can never look back
With a love like that I had the courage to ask
I hope nobody tells you it ain't gonna last
'Cause there's a beauty in a love like that

A love like that
A love like that
A love like that

With a love like that man I feel so right
With a love like that it'll change your life
But don't you tell me it ain't gonna last, yeah
There's a beauty in a love like that
Oh yes there is, oh no no

Love like that
Man it's built to last
Love like that
You don't ever look back

Love like that
Oh yes there is
Love like that
And I'm so glad I found it
Love like that
