A=440: Labor of love [lyrics]

A=440

Labor of love

If you think that love's a game

That guarantees you'll always win

Then you'll give it up

The first time he breaks your heart

'Cause nothing ventured, nothing gained

To stay in love you gotta stay with him

When you're hurt and cryin' 

And the pain's tearin' you apart

'Cause you hold on through the night

When you know it's worth the fight

It's a labor of love

It's a labor of love

So don't think he's a perfect man

The kind that every girl dreams of

though his kindness

May bring blindness for a while

'Cause all the dreams at your command

Can't hide that fact that all real love

Will bring you cryin' to your knees

Like a little child

But you hold on through the night

When you know it's worth the fight

It's a labor of love

It's a labor of love

You can never love enough

So girl when you're hurtin' 

Don't you desert him

You gotta hold on when it gets rough

It's a labor of love

So if you want your love to last

Don't you play no truth or dare

Just tell him

That you're never gonna leave his side

'Cause love can come and go so fast

And maybe it won't treat you fair

But that's no excuse for leavin'

No reason to run and hide

'Cause you hold on through the night

When you know it's worth the fight

CHORUS
