Love Lives (events Of The Heart) (album Version) - Chad Brock

In the birth announcements

On the fourteenth page of the small town daily news

It read Lilah Thompson had a baby boy

Six pound at 10 0 2

But they didn't list the father

He was carefully ignored

No mention of the scuffle in the corridor

But the question still got asked

At the nurses' 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 I a while

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 wiil to forgive

Love lives

Three suitcases and a baby seat

And thier lives were in a car

Stealling off to the city they both believe

They can make it if they work real hard

Three weeks later they were out of the cheap motel

Having dinner at the Taco Bell

When he gave her the ring

Oh once in a while

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

Preacher said if anyone objects

Speak now or hold your peace

Every eye in the church turned to watch the man

Rose up from his seat

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 a while

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
