What Livin’s All About

[Verse 1]
Mama's holding on as I was letting go
Not sure where I was heading to, well, on my own
I remember all the power of my father's words
Long after they were spoken, they could still be heard
He said, "Life's not quite as simple out beyond these fields
This world is bound to fail you but our love never will"

[Chorus]
Lovin's what livin's all about
It's the givin' not the takin'
That makes life worthwhile
When we're livin' without lovin'
We're livin' without
Lovin's what livin's all about

[Verse 2]
You can ask a dyin' man what he'd rather hold
A tender lovin' hand or a heart of gold
Have you ever seen yourself in a newborn's eyes?
I tell you it's enough to make a tough guy cry
Have you ever felt the healing of a lover's touch?
There's nothing like the feeling when you fall in love

[Chorus]
Lovin's what livin's all about
It's the givin' not the takin'
That makes life worthwhile
When we're livin' without lovin'
We're livin' without
Lovin's what livin's all about
Lovin's what livin's all about

[Bridge]
Love can bring the sweetest joy
Love can bring us to tears
Love can lead us through the fire
It's the reason we're here

[Chorus]
Lovin's what livin's all about
It's the givin' not the takin'
That makes life worthwhile
When we're livin' without lovin'
We're livin' without
Lovin's what livin's all about
Lovin's what livin's all about
