Why God Made Love Songs Lyrics - Even The River Runs - Joel Crouse

There ain't nothing that can start a fire 

Break down walls, lift you higher 

While you sing along 

When you want to say it, but your words are gone 

That's why God made love songs 

Now, a boy meets girl on a cool summer night 

When he sees her smile under the football lights 

He forgets the game, 

Yeah, he's gotta know her name 

After awkward pauses and nervous talk 

Running out of words in the parking lot 

They get in his truck 

And he turns that radio up 

A song starts playin', 

Hearts start racin' 

No more waitin' 

On that first kiss 

There ain't nothing that can start a fire 

Break down walls, lift you higher 

While you sing along 

Ain't it somethin', how it can take you back 

To another time, like you never left 

And the feeling's just as strong 

When you want to say it, but your words are gone 

That's why God made love songs 

Well, they met at a dance at the armory 

In the summer of nineteen sixty-three 

That local band played, 

And they were swept away 

Nearly fifty years have come and gone 

Kids and grandkids almost grown 

Still, every Friday night, 

He digs out that forty-five 

Without thinkin', 

They start dancin' 

And they fall in love again 

There ain't nothing that can start a fire 

Break down walls, lift you higher 

While you sing along 

Ain't it somethin', how it can take you back 

To another time, like you never left 

And the feeling's just as strong 

When you want to say it, but your words are gone 

That's why God made love songs 

God made love songs 

There ain't nothing that can start a fire 

Break down walls, lift you higher 

While you sing along 

Ain't it somethin', how it can take you back 

To another time, like you never left 

And the feeling's just as strong 

There ain't nothing that can start a fire 

Break down walls, lift you higher 

While you sing along 

When you want to say it, but your words are gone 

And you sure don't want to get it wrong 

That's why God made love songs 

God made love songs
