Did you think he was sweet? Did you think he could change? Did you think "Oh, there's good in him, I can tell." And whether I'm right And whether you know it though Would you say, "It's over now, so go to hell." Or would you say, "There. That's love. It's on the table. Oh my dear. There. That's love. It's on the table. Oh my dear." We had a house We had a car that year We had a goodness of heart You can't keep away And if i came home And if i slept in my brother's home Would you say "There's good in him, I can tell." Or would you say, "There. That's love. It's on the table. Oh my dear. There. That's love. It's on the table. Oh my dear." But I was too dumb to recognize Yeah, it didn't look like you And I was too young to realize Something was true Lord lift me up over all gentlemen 'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong Lord lift me up over all gentlemen 'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong Lord lift me up outta the slum tenements 'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong Lord lift me up over all gentlemen 'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong And then there. That's love. It's on the table. Oh, my dear. There. That's love. It's on the table. Oh, my dear.
