Makeshift Innocence - All You Need is Love Lyrics

You say son
Come and sit beside me
There's a story to be found
In every melody
And there ain't nothing you can't have
If you would just believe
I'm telling you the truth

And as your mom
I always did the best I could
And if there's was more that I could do
You know I would
It just seems that
I seemed to have lost my way

I'll tell ya momma
I know you did the best you could
You tried to hold us up
And show us good
And I believe with every ounce of my heart
That you did

And even though I heard you cry at night
You were the one who taught me how to smile
And I can still hear
The words that you would say

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love, love
To get you through the day
And will tell you the truth
There ain't nothing you can't do
When you've got love
Inside your heart

You see
When your daddy went to jail
He left us living up
Inside this hell
We had no money
But we still had bills
And that's how I got caught up
With them pills
Do you remember?
We would play cards in the dark
I was the ace of spades
You were my king of hearts
And there's still so much
That I wish I could say

I'll show you momma
I'm a make you proud
I'll pave the road
And then I'll show you how
And together we can make it
One step at a time
I tell ya momma
I'm your living proof
And that you have left me
With the very best of you
And with you in my heart
I can hear the words that you'd say

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love, love
To get you through the day
And will tell you the truth
There ain't nothing you can't do
When you've got love
Inside your heart

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love, love
To get you through the day
And will tell you the truth
There ain't nothing you can't do
When you've got love
Inside your heart

You say son
Come and sit beside me
There's a story to be found
In every melody
And there ain't nothing you can't have
If you would just believe
I'm telling you the truth

And as your mom
I always did the best I could
And if there's was more that I could do
You know I would
It just seems that
I seemed to have lost my way

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love, love
To get you through the day
And will tell you the truth
There ain't nothing you can't do
When you've got love
Inside your heart

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love, love
To get you through the day
And will tell you the truth
There ain't nothing you can't do
When you've got love
Inside your heart

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love
To get you through the day
