The Seventy Sevens - How Can You Love

She's so pretty
Guys desire her instantly
They call it love at first sight
She's a sampler
And she's tasted lots of loves
In search of Mr. Right
She's really quite frantic
For someone romantic
Selah
Someone to adore her
Someone who won't bore her
Selah

He's a lover
And he loves her pretty good
But he doesn't want strings
She believed him
When he said their love was real
And they didn't need rings
So she satisfied him
She never denied him
Selah
But she wound up alone
Now she's back by the phone
Selah

How can you love
If you haven't got love in your heart
You're more or less playing a part
How can you love if you only want
Love in return
Turn around
To the Author of love

She's heard stories
About the fairy tale end
And the dream-come-true
So she studies
Paperbacks and magazines
To tell her what to do
What's a girl to do

Chorus
