Writer: Skip Ewing

I grew up believin' in Forever Love
The kinda love my Mama and Daddy knew
A little bit old fashion and a little shy
Strong enought to bend and soft enough to cry

Some might say I'm foolish for the way I feel
Cause it don't happen like that anymore
Well, I don't care if they think that I'm nigheve
No matter what, I'll always believe

CHORUS:
The way love oughta be, simple, true, and strong
A whisper in your heart, right where you belong
A tender promise of a lifetime guarantee
Maybe, that ain't the way love is
But its the way love ought to be

Well, I've had my heart broken seems so many times
But I just wouldn't let me give up hope
Now that I've found you, I know I wasn't wrong
And everyday I thank my heart for holdin' on

Cause you grew up believin' in Forever Love
The kinda love your Mama and Daddy knew
Togehter, you and I can watch our children grow
Just taken pride in known that they'll know

CHORUS:
The way love oughta be, simple, true, and strong
A whisper in your heart, right where you belong
A tender promise of a lifetime guarantee
Maybe, that ain't the way love is
But its the way love ought to be

Maybe, that ain't the way love is
But its the way love ought to be
