Love Isn't Love

about

OFS wrote this song, "Love Isn't Love", with hit songwriter/producer Mark Hudson. The song was one of two song that Decca Records was going to add as extra cuts to the digital release of "Last Of The Good Guys", the band's full length release. It was a blast to write and record this song, because the positive energy in both scenarios was contagious, and the excitement for the great music being made was at an all time high.

lyrics

Well, I was thinking of the time,
When the world was yours and mine
It's true
It belonged to me and you

Now, I see everything has changed
and though nothing stays the same
It's true
There must be something we can do, and

We can only make it better
If we work it out together

I hope all your prayers are answered
And every dream comes true
The secret hiding in your soul
Won't stay inside of you

The love in your heart wasn't put there to stay
Love isn't love
'Til you give it away
'Til you give it away
So give it away
'Til you give it away

I don't want to bring you down, look around, look around
If your eyes are open then you're gonna see
There's something to believe

I hope all your prayers are answered
Don't care who you're praying to
There's someone to believe in
That's bigger than you

The love in your heart wasn't put there to stay
Love isn't Love
'Til you give it away
'Til you give it away
So give it away
'Til you give it away
'Til you give it away
So give it away
