CSome say Glove is a 50/50 thing
CHalf from me, half from you
And there’s Gnothing else that we need to bring
CNot from me, not from you
AmAnd so we give each other Ghalf of lives
AmAnd hope we surGvive
BmUntil my half is not eCnough for you
CsusAnd pretty soon is over, Dwhatever happened to I do
Chorus:
GI know of a Creal love
GI know of a Dvery real love
GI know of a Creal love
When that Gheartache comes Dfalling Gdown
You just can’t believe what some people say
Just listen how they talk that way
They say love is not worth the price you pay
And it never was, until not today
And so we give each other half a heart
And think it’s alright
And wonder why, when they’re fallin apart
They just don’t get it, they’re crying all night
Chorus
DLonely hearts left alone to Embattle it out in the Dnight
They don’t Cknow what it means, they don’t know about Emlove
DTorn apart, looking for some Emway ouDt
