Using Things & Loving People Lyrics - You Gave Me Love (when Nobody Gave Me A Prayer)/miracle - Bj Thomas

Using things and loving people 

That's the way it's got to be 

Using things and loving people 

Look around and you can see 

That loving things and using people 

Only leads to misery 

Using things and loving people 

That's the way it's got to be 

Being loved is in the giving 

All we have is what we share 

Loving life is for the living 

You have to have a heart to care 

And loving things and using people 

Only leads to misery 

Using things and loving people 

That's the way it's got to be 

So put your hand inside my hand 

I don't know where the road will lead 

We may not find the things we want 

But we will find the things we need 

And all we need is love 

Using things and loving people 

Brings you happiness I've found 

Using things and loving people 

Not the other way around 

'Cause loving things and using people 

Only leads to misery 

Using things and loving people 

That's the way it's got to be
