Lyrics
ANYWAY
VERSE:
I ain't no beauty queen
Well I know I'm no movie star
And all the money we got between us
It wouldn't get us far
But we love each other anyway
Oh I love you anyway
VERSE:
If I lose this job
You'll go out and get another one
And til one of us pass that driving test
Guess we'll have to take the bus
But we love each other anyway
Oh I love you anyway
CHORUS:
I love you anyway You're my night and day
And though I know I don't know how to say it right
You've got a heart of gold You've been my self-control
We've heard a million Nos We keep on getting by
'Cause we love each other anyway
Oh I love you anyway
VERSE:
No one can sing our song
No not quite the same as me and you
So let them tell us that we're all wrong
We know that it's not the truth
And we love each other anyway
Oh I love you anyway
Karl Williams
