| I saw a young white boy open up the door
|
| For an old black lady who was walkin in the store
|
| And it hit me, yeah, it me, things ain’t all that bad
|
| I saw a homeless man pull a dollar from his shoe
|
| Slip it in the plate as it was passin down the pew
|
| And I wondered, I couldn’t help but wonder, was it the last he had
|
| Oh, I believe that loves alive and well
|
| Though the way things are these days
|
| Some say its hard to tell
|
| And I’ve seen one little candle
|
| Keep away the darkness all by itself
|
| And thats the reason why
|
| I know loves alive and well
|
| Theyd been together sixty-three years
|
| Still they smile at each other and their eyes fill up with tears
|
| Ain’t that something, but ain’t that how it’s supposed to be
|
| Oh, I believe that loves alive and well
|
| Though the way things are these days
|
| Some say its hard to tell
|
| And Ive seen one little candle
|
| Keep away the darkness all by itself
|
| And thats the reason why
|
| I know loves alive and well
|
| Yeah, thats the reason why
|
| I know loves alive and well |
