Chad Brock - Love Lives Lyrics
In the birth announcements on the fourteeth pageof the small-town daily newsIt read Lilah Thompson had a baby boySix pounds at 10:02But they didn't list the fatherHe was carefully ignoredNo mention of the scuffle in the corridorBut the questions still got askedAt the nurses' station he was close enoughTo hear her call his nameHe said, " It isn't fair,but if he knows I'm here,Her dad will go insaneIf there's something you can do about itWould you tryI just want to hear our baby cryEven if it's through the glass"CHORUS***Oh,Once in whileWhen the odds are against loveAnd all the events of the heart are on trialIf somebody givesAnd leaves the door openTo the power of hope and the will to forgiveLove Lives***Three suitcases and a baby seatAnd their lives were in a carStealing off to the city were they believedThey could make it if they worked real hardThree weeks later they were out of that cheap motelHaving dinner at the Toco BellWhen he gave her the ring***CHORUS***When the preacher said "If anyone objectsSpeak now or hold your peace"Every eye in the church turned to watch the manWho rose up from his seatBut when he said" I'm sorry for the things I didn't understandCan I give you to this man"Everybody cried***CHORUS***Love Lives
