From the recording Love is a Kick Drum
words and music by Kevin Michael Thompson
Lyrics
Verse One
Love is a bank heist
Love is a loaded gun
Love will stick you up
Then take the money and run
Verse Two
Love is a four-letter word
Love is an action verb
Love will make you cuss
Make you sing at the top of your lungs
Chorus
Love ain't something you can control
Love tears you apart when it makes you whole
Love ain't something you can own
Love is a kick drum and rock and roll
Verse Three
Love is a prizefight
Love it goes pound for pound
Love will bloody your nose
Love will knock you out
Verse Four
Love is a parking lot
Love is an open road
Love is a battlefield
On your mama's radio
Chorus
Love ain't something you can control
Love tears you apart when it makes you whole
Love ain't something you can own
Love is a kick drum and rock and roll
Verse Five
Love is a torn wing
Love ain't afraid to fly
Love is a big ol' mess
But it's worth the try
