Love Lives (events Of The Heart) Lyrics

In the birth announcements on the fourteenth page

Of the small-town daily
news

It read Lilah Thompson had a baby boy

Six pounds at 10:02

But
they didn't list the father

He was carefully ignored

No mention of the
scuffle in the corridor

But the questions still got asked



At the
nurse's station he was close enough

To hear her call his name

He said,
"It isn't fair, but if he knows I'm here

Her dad will go insane

If
there's something you can do about it

Would you try

I just want to hear
our baby cry

Even if it's through the glass"



Oh, once in awhile
when the odds are against love

And all the events of the heart are on
trial

If somebody gives

And leaves the door open

To the power of
hope and the will to forgive

Love lives



Three suitcases and a baby
seat

And their lives were in a car

Stealing off  to the city where they
both believed

They could make it if they worked real hard

Three weeks
later they were out of that cheap motel

Having dinner at the Taco
Bell

When he gave her the ring



Oh, once in awhile when the odds
are against love

And all the events of the heart are on trial

If
somebody gives

And leaves the door open

To the power of hope and the
will to forgive

Love lives



When the preacher said, "If anyone
objects

Speak now or hold your peace"

Every eye in the church turned to
watch the man

Who rose up from his seat

But when he said

"I'm sorry
for the things I didn't understand

Can I give you to this
man"

Everybody cried



Oh, once in awhile when the odds are against
love

And all the events of the heart are on trial

If somebody
gives

And leaves the door open

To the power of hope and the will to
forgive

Love lives



Love lives
