What About Love? Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Eyes closed, head down, pretending not to be awake
My heart's bruised 'cause you're acting like it's okay
I'm laying down beside you but between us, there's an empty space
My heart still beats, but it's only so much it can take

[Chorus]
What about love?
What about love?
I don't wanna be the only one fighting
Trying to save something that you don't want
So, what about love?
Is it enough?

[Verse 2]
Should I just lay here and hope these feelings go away?
'Cause I wanna scream out, "Another night is like another heartbreak"
I don't wanna love you, but light and lead the way that you want me to
I got my eyes wide open, hit me with the truth
And tell me if I matter to you

[Chorus]
What about love?
What about love?
I don't wanna be the only one fighting
Trying to save something that you don't want
So, what about love?
Is it enough?
[Bridge]
If you aren't willing to fight for us, then, why should I?
I'm willing to sacrifice all for us, to get what I want
It's gonna take more than love to keep us together
But we'll be stronger if we have it again

[Chorus]
What about love?
What about love?
I don't wanna be the only one fighting
Trying to save something that you don't want
So, what about love? (About love, about love, about love)
Is it enough?
What about love?
What about love?
I don't wanna be the only one fighting
Trying to save something that you don't want
So, what about love? (What about love?)
Is it enough?

[Outro]
Oh, is it enough, oh?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
