Billy Dean In The Name Of Love Lyrics

In The Name Of Love Lyrics

(Skip Ewing/Doug Stone)

 

 He said baby I love you

 And she believed it was true

 In the back seat of his Malibu they made love

 For the worst and for the best

 With their best friends as their guests

 And in her mama's wedding dress she said I do

 

 She did it in the name of love

 She did it in the name of love

 He was all she was thinking of

 She did it in the name of love

 Did it in the name of love

 It's amazing what a heart's prepared to do

 In the name of love

 

 Forever didn't last too long

 A few short months and he was gone

 But the love they made was growing strong inside her

 She said I can't afford to raise him right

 She asked for help but got advice

 Couldn't choose to take a life so she had a child

 

 She did it in the name of love

 She did it in the name of love

 He was all she was thinking of

 She did it in the name of love

 Did it in the name of love

 It's amazing what a heart's prepared to do

 In the name of love

 

 She drove by his house today

 And from a distance watched him play

 Never gave herself away and cried

 Now the only thing that keeps her sane

 Is knowing deep inside
