Lyrics

Down to Love Words and Melody by: Al Hovden

Nothing says bright like the diamond life
And she turned on all the lights when she came into sight
Your whole world shone when she took you on
How could something so right ever be so wrong
Was it only that you were lonely
That she could take your whole life and own you
And all of these things that we hold to be true
Come down to love

Down to love

I could have told you
That it was over
You can't pretend when it comes
Down to love
When you feel that shoulder
Growing colder
That's how it goes when it comes
Down to love

And she goes to the right to the left to the middle
You couldn't hold on to her heart it's a riddle
A look in her eyes that you hoped would say more
But she broke like a mirror and she dropped to the floor
All the kings horses and all the kings men
They couldn't put this one together again
And all of these things that we hold to be true
Come down to love

Down to love

CHORUS

And all those nights you spent with no one
Make you blind
Can't see the signs
No matter how hard you try
It all comes down to love
It all comes down to love

Down to love

CHORUS
