Tim Minchin If All You Ever Had Was Love
[Chorus]
If you all ever had was love
If you all ever had was love
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
[Verse 1]
Love is tired, overdone
Burt Bacharach on the telephone
I will rest, no more songs
Till life has spent some time alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Love's been done a hundred times
A song for every fallen tear
A verse for every girl and boy
A note for every— guess I'll see you later, baby
[Chorus]
If you all ever had was love
If you all ever had was love
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
[Verse 3]
All those words linger on
Like Elton on the radio
Must we crave fast food love?
A love song and some fries to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Love's been done a thousand times
A song for every lost idea
A verse for every broken dream
A note for every— guess I'll see you later, baby
[Verse 3]
I am tired, heavy load
A donkey for my love messiah
I will just carry on
Until they notice I am tired
[Pre-Chorus]
Love's been sung a million times
A song for every jilted lover
A verse for every broken heart
A note for every— guess it's over this time, baby
This time, baby, this time, baby
Guess it's over this time
[Chorus]
If you all ever had was love
If you all ever had was love
If you all ever had was love
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
Love is all you'd ever write
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
Love is all you'd ever write
Love is all you'd ever write songs about
