Lori McKenna - You Get a Love Song lyrics

Well, they ain't gonna make a movie About a couple of fools like us No one's gonna write a book About our little love You don't get your picture on the local front page For falling in love at a reckless age, No, no... For saying I do when you're 19 In a hand-me-down dress with a pawn shop ring For having no money for a honeymoon Cuz you're saving it up for the baby boom For knowing a love dies hard when it starts this young Well, you don't get much - no no But you get a love song... Well, this Sunday's sermon won't mention All the work we put into this love They ain't gonna hang a billboard Congratulating us For surviving every rise and fall For being more hard headed than a wrecking ball, no no For letting me chase a hopeless dream For giving up on trying to change me For drinking your way so far down I almost thought I couldn't pull you out But knowing the only thing harder than letting go is holding on Well, you don't get much - no no But you get a love song... Next time a hurricane comes through They won't name it after us And how could you paint a picture That looked anything like love The 6 o'clock news don't give a damn That by the grace of God we worked it out again For working overtime and living week to week For letting your dreams fall into me For being a man with a damn true heart I'm gonna hold you through the hardest parts For being a love that will last - even after life is gone You don't get much - no no But you get a love song...
