Love Isn’t Love
I can tell you how I feel for you
And all the things that I could do
To show you the love I have is true
There are many words that I could say
Some melodies that I'd like to play
To show you the love I have is true
But my thoughts may change
And my words they'll pass
And only what I do is going to last
And this will show you the love I have is true

The lonely run away
That has no place for his head to lay
Who will show them that they're loved
The one who's lost a friend
And feels the emptiness within
The pain they feel should be mine
So I've got to takе the time
To let my light shinе, my light shine
And show the love of Jesus Christ

Love isn't love
Till you've given it away
It's just waiting to be given
All bitterness erased
By this man
Know that you're Christ's disciples
Nothing else can take love's place
Love isn't love
Till you've given it away
The pain they feel should be mine
So I've got to take the time
To let my light shine, my light shine
And show the love of Jesus Christ

Love isn't love
Till you've given it away
It's just waited to be given
All bitterness erased
By this man
Know that you're Christ's disciples
And nothing else can take the place of love

Love isn't love
I love you just doesn't mean
The same anymore
You can preach and shout
And talk real loud
It still isn't love

Love isn't love
I'm here to tell you this evening
Love isn't, love isn't
You've got to reach way down
To the bottom of your heart
Give it away
Love isn't love
Till you've given it away
Give love away
You got to give your love away
Give love away
What good will love do you
Let me tell you

What good will love do you
If you keep it to yourself
Somebody needs to receive it from you
So give it to somebody else
