Lyrics
We knew they were comin’, the road just couldn’t take it, It couldn’t be so easy and smooth just to make it, All the time, So the question is, my love ... When would we hit it and how would we react, Oh, would we get stuck and get off track, And break down, Or would we keep goin’ on? Thru those bumps and potholes Big ones, and small ones, of every kind Will they bring us down? Knowin’ what we know we’ll have some words, and Knowin’ who we are there will be some times That will slow us down, spin us around, Only time will tell what our story will be But I listened to you and you listened to me That’s all we need … For us to keep goin’ on Thru those bumps and potholes Big ones, and small ones, of every kind Will they bring us down? No, No, No … not gonna let you go, Love don't come around … everyday. Oh, Oh, Oh … burnin’ from head to toe, Woman, I love you so … and I’m here to stay … Thru those bumps and potholes Big ones, and small ones, of every kind Will they bring us down? © 2011 Philip W.
