[Verse 1]
Well, I came here to see Grandpa
When our love first began
We sat down on this front porch
And had a real good man-to-man
I told him about you and me
How we were altar-bound
I asked how he and Grandma
Had kept their love on solid ground
He sat there thinkin' for a while
And he scratched his old gray head
He looked at me with wise old eyes
And finally he said

[Chorus]
"Even when it don't feel like it
It's still love
Even when we don't act like it
It's still love
Son, we made ourself a promise
And we're never givin' up
Even when it don't feel like love"

[Verse 2]
Well, the plans were made
We set the date
And the wedding bells did chime
You were beautiful
And I was proud that you were mine
Everything was perfect
Like I knew that it would be
Then one night, like lightning strikes
Things changed for you and me
I wasn't sure we could repair the damage to our hearts
But that's the night my Grandpa's words
Finally hit their mark
[Chorus]
"Even when it don't feel like it
It's still love
Even when we don't act like it
It's still love
We made ourself a promise
And we're never givin' up
Even when it don't feel like love"

[Bridge]
Grandpa, he's gone on now
And Grandma, she's gone too
But they left behind this old farm
And a simple truth for me and you

[Chorus]
"Even when it don't feel like it
It's still love
Even when we don't act like it
It's still love
We made ourself a promise
And we're never givin' up
Even when it don't feel like love"

Even when it don't feel like love
