Things Go Better With Love
The neighbor next door looks worried
Her face looks tired and hurried
And she just told me that she couldn't go on
The man she married for money has found another honey
And that great big nice house has just become an ice house
And she gets tired of staying all alone

But things go better with love things go better with love
It's made of something nothing else is made of
Things go better with love things go better with love
And life is much more fun when you're in love

Well, I wrecked your new car last week
Last night it rained
And the roof leaked
But the rain on the window pane made a soothing sound

In any situation
We've got a firm foundation
When it's hard to pay the mortage
Why we don't mind the shortage

Cause we've got all that love to spread around
Cause things go better...
Things go better...
