Once there was a boy and girl Boy said "I love you so" Girl said "I'll never leave you" They grew older and left each other 'Cause that's the way love goes Then there's a time Seems like you'll never find Someone willing to love you Keep on looking you'll soon discover A mighty love Can sometimes make a weak man moan Said a mighty love You sit all day by the telephone 'Cause you're all alone You need a mighty love Some say that you're sure to find True love and piece of mind At the end of the rainbow There's no sign in the sky to follow 'Cause that's the way love goes And so there's a rhyme That says life will soon be fine Love is just what you make it Keep on loving, you'll soon discover A mighty love Can sometimes make a weak man strong A mighty love Can sometimes make a rich man weep And knock him off his feet To have a mighty love
