Two young lovers meet and take each others hand
They say I do in the name of the Lord
Livin´ as one givin´ all they can
Then the pressures come and a child is born
Young girl cradles the child in her arms
The man´s home late and his day´s too long
They´re both unable to spend some time alone
That everybody needs to have
That´s the thing that keeps love strong

Love don´t always come easy
And sometimes love it can hurt
Words don´t always come easy
It´s worth a try we´re gonna make it work
´Cause love don´t always come easy

Without warning many go a different way
And travel that road lookin´ for someone
Their lives unravel a little more every day
This ain´t no time to turn and run
It´s a crime to throw it all away

Love don´t always come easy
And sometimes love it can hurt
Words don´t always come easy
It´s worth a try we´re gonna make it work
´Cause love don´t always come easy
