Love ain’t meant to be no ball and chain,
Wantchya to be free, and I want the same so,
Dontchya hold me back, dontchya drag nobody down,
Imma walk away, until you come round.
Chorus:
Cuz love ain’t, love ain’t, no love ain’t, I said love,
Love ain’t about ownin no-one,
Love ain’t about changing em,
Love ain’t about rushin no-one,
Love ain’t about saving em
So let on go, control and jealousy,
Don’t hold each other so, so tight you can’t breathe.
Chorus:
Cuz love ain’t, love ain’t, no love ain’t, I said love,
(Spoken)
Wrapping our bodies and winding our lives,
Drunk on love’s touch, love’s look in our eyes,
Knees weak and hearts open, we walked side by side,
Our embrace, the place, where our fears would subside but,
How much was shown and how much was hidden,
How much was forced and how much forbidden,
What would it take, how many tears to be cried,
For us to wake up, walk on, and realize that
(Sung)
Love ain’t about ownin no-one,
Love ain’t about changing em
Love ain’t about rushin no-one,
Love ain’t about saving em
