Songtekst
{transcribed by Adri Verhoef, 23-8-1997}
(ooh-yaah, a thing called love)
Six foot six, he stood on the ground
He weighed two hundred and thirty-five pound[s]
Well I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love
He was the kind of a man that would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
Well I saw him crying like a little whipped pup, because of love.
[chorus]:
You can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
But like the wind that covers our land
Strong enough to ruin the hearts of many men, this thing called love
It can lift you up, never let you down
Take you in a whirl and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found that's stronger than love
Those men are like me, they struggle and doubt
They drop in their mines, day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about a little word like love.
But when I see your mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I thank God that the world's been blessed with a thing called love.
[chorus]
Ever since time nothing's ever been found that's stronger than love.
