Is Your Love For Real

Is your love for real? Hey, you say you understand- the heart of man- blood pumping in veins Do you know how it feels? how the heart feels pain naked in the rain You say that you understand Is it ever the same? your life after love You can never go back! 'cause, your life now is so on track Will your love remain? or, will your white dress get stained? from love spilled from some other glass Then you'll be lost and ashamed Do you understand? Chorus Don't you know Don't you know my love's real You've been hiding out just fooling yourself 'bout what you feel Never thinking that you'd find out what love's all about So then, what do you feel? Is your love for real? Chorus repeat twice fade John Derek Hamilton October 18,2016

A great question in your lyric, John:) But sometimes it may just be the suspicion that breaks apart a relationship...

Question which should be ask before marriage, huh John? Really nice flow and excellent content. If we only knew in advance!

Yeah, good to know in advance, but some unfortunately don't know their own heart and how easy it is to succumb to temptation, and then fail, and all is ruined. Good thing I don't have to worry, I have a loyal woman 21 years now!

Really nice John, the cadence of your words flows nicely enough that placing a melody to this wonderful set of lyrics would be easy.

Hey Chris you're the guitar man, go ahead with a melody. like I said before, we can split the royalties, no problem. Thanks for the nod of confidence.
