Lyrics:

1989
Skip Ewing, Red Lane

(Talking)

I've heard it said
And I believe
If a man has nothin else
If a man has only love
He has all he needs

Well, I've got love
Enough for two
The only thing that I need now
The only thing I don't have is you

But I can see it perfect in my mind all the time
And that's what keeps me holdin on
Pretending your still mine
I wouldn't miss you half as much
I could make it on my own
If a man could live on love alone

Sure, I like my job
'Course, I love my friends
But what I really love
Is waking up one day to find
We've always had what should have been

Cause all the feelin's there
God, I miss your touch
Is wantin you and needin' you here with me
Really askin' all that much

But I can see it perfect in my mind all the time
And that's what keeps me holdin on
Pretending your still mine
I wouldn't miss you half as much
I could make it on my own
If a man could live on love alone
If a man could live on love alone
