Can't Get by on Love Songtext

von Thunder

She took me by the hand
She said she'd missed
And it wasn't enough talking on the telephone
She told "quit the band and be a married man"
I said baby, hold on just a minute
I don't think you understand

Look at the place we live in and the bills that I have to pay
Do I have to come home to this every time I go away

'Cause you can't get by on love
Love just isn't enough
This world can be so cruel and tough
No you can't get by
No matter how you try
You can't get by on love
No no no no no no no

I need a couple of years
Then I might have enough
To stop your moaning
I'll give you everything that you've been dreaming of
But don't you push too hard
Girl, don't you close me in
Can't you use your time to do something you believe in

It ain't a party all the time
'Cause I get lonely too
While you keep going on and on
'Bout the things you think I do

'Cause you can't get by on love
Love just isn't enough
This world can be so cruel and tough
No you can't get by
No matter how you try
You can't get by on love
Can't get by on love, no no

HAHA

Tell me baby did you forget what I told you at the start?
So why d'you wanna keep tearing us apart?

'Cause you can't get by on love
Love just isn't enough
This world can be so cruel and tough
No you can't get by
No matter how you try
You can't get by on love
