Love In Bloom

(album: The Higher They Climb, The Harder They Fall - 1975)

Did she leave you busted, bruised and battered?
Empty pockets, just staring at the moon
Did you give the best you had
But your best wasn't good enough?
Are you feeling that you ain't man enough?
Look out, pal, 'cause it sure, sure gets rough.

When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh how you wanna hold her
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
What are you, you gonna do
When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh, how you wanna hold her.

Did she kick you out in the gutter for another?
Yes, and you're down so low your nose is dragging in the sand
I know love is twice as hard when you're in love alone
In love she's just up and gone
Look out, pal, you sure, sure gotta be strong.

When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh how you wanna hold her
When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh how you wanna hold her
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
Yes, what are you, you gonna do
When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh, how you wanna hold her
When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh, how you wanna hold her
When that old sun's coming over your shoulder
And ooh, how you wanna hold her
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
When your love's in bloom, she's got no more room for you
