If Only Love Had Ears

(álbum: Driven - 2022)

No one can deny the causes
Even for a thought to pause
It's no good if there's no decree
Looking for a way to end it
Something maybe that could mend it
One thing comes to mind for me

If only love had ears
I'm sure we'd all avoid the phonies
The one who says he loves you only
Then slovenly disappears
If only love had ears
The double life you plan on leading
No longer can it go on being
All you were hoping for

You can laugh about the notion
Easy to deride
Knowing it can only never be
Yet the point if it is taken
And the message it provides
Could end a lot of misery

If only love had ears
There'd be no home late of an evening
Where you could lie about it being
Work that had kept you there
If only love had ears

You may laugh over the notion
And it's no surprise
Knowing it is only make believe
But the point if it is taken
And the message it implies
Could put an end to so much grief

If only love had ears
The very thought of would be seeing
The likes of those who think by cheating
What they would have to fear
If only love
If only love
Had ears
