Love Don't Always Come Easy

Lynyrd Skynyrd

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

[chorus]
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

[repeat chorus]
