Lyrics
How Many Loves
By Ted Horrell
I’ve been around
Or you could say
I’ve never seen the likes of what I see today
I’ve got to know
Is it just me?
I may be deficient in my sense of history but
(Chorus)
How many loves like this have you ever known?
That’s including books and movies and those
Daydreams when you’re all alone
How many loves like this have you ever known?
I guess I’ve seen
Happiness before
I’ve even heard about some loves that did endure
I like the tales
The kind bards and poets tell
But I’ve never heard a tale turn out half as well as this
(Chorus)
It’s not the kind of thing
You go looking for
But if you find it
You hold on for sure
I’ve been around
Or you could say
I’ve never seen the likes of what I see today
The verdict’s in
And it must be
The kind of thing that makes you happy just to see
(Chorus)
