Thunder Can't Get by on Love song lyrics

She took me by the hand

She said she'd missed

And it wasn't enough talking on the telephone

She told "quit the band and be a married man"

I said baby, hold on just a minute

I don't think you understand

Look at the place we live in and the bills that I have to pay

Do I have to come home to this every time I go away

'Cause you can't get by on love

Love just isn't enough

This world can be so cruel and tough

No you can't get by

No matter how you try

You can't get by on love

No no no no no no no

I need a couple of years

Then i might have enough

To stop your moaning

I'll give you everything that you've been dreaming of

But don't you push too hard

Girl, don't you close me in

Can't you use your time to do something you believe in

It ain't a party all the time

'Cause I get lonely too

While you keep going on and on

'Bout the things you think I do

'Cause you can't get by on love

Love just isn't enough

This world can be so cruel and tough

No you can't get by

No matter how you try

You can't get by on love

Can't get by on love, no no

HAHA

Tell me baby did you forget what I told you at the start?

So why d'you wanna keep tearing us apart?

'Cause you can't get by on love

Love just isn't enough

This world can be so cruel and tough

No you can't get by

No matter how you try

You can't get by on love
