If Not for Love

Douglas Glenn Tubb, Larry Lee (Songwriter)

A broken man moves slowly down the sidewalk
Humbled by the favours he must seek
From those that he encounters on
His walk through misery
Who are rich enough to hurt
Just as they please
If not for love I could be one of these
An old man on a park bench stares with envy
At a couple with their
Children on their knees
While across the park a young man
Is caught by the police
Stealing for a habit he must feed
And if not for love I could be one of these

I could be one of these or so many many more
Always at the beck and call of shame
I'm thankful I was called by love
To walk among the happy
But if not for you love
Wouldn't know my name

A man of squander talents vainly calls on
His gift of God now
Straining through his soul
While in the crowd before him
A jealous friend await's
The moments that he can no longer please
And if not for love I could be one of these

Yes if not for love I could be one of these
