It’s not like in the movies
There’s much more to it
You can’t be superficial
Or the spirit goes flat
It takes a lot of work
Sometimes there will be pain
Relationships require the will to work it out
Let me explain
Love’s a train of commitment
Understanding too
Faith in destiny
Forgiveness so that one forgets
Just keep moving on
It’s a daily effort, but it is no chore
When two really tango, there is so much more
To living, to sharing in every way
When you can turn to another and simply say
I love you, when and then it’s really real
There’s a joy that permeates
To the world you can’t conceal
You’ve found the meaning of life
Surely this is love
Relationships, ah relationships
When they work, when you spend the time
Of them you can’t get enough of
