Verse 1:
She was waiting alone at the station praying for her train to arrive
Thinking 'bout her destination, her tattered bag had all she had in life
She turned her back on her family, she said goodbye to her friends
She turned her back on a married man when she took off the wedding band
But through her crying she said I don't need this
Through the tears she said it's all a waste
It ain't nothing like it is in the movies
Here a hit is just a slap in the face
Chorus:
And it's no big secret so forget all you heard
'cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's for better, for us it's for worse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Nothing?
Verse 2:
This time he said was the last time, last time he said just the same
In your heart you know that they'll be a next time
Your battered bones would have to explain
Now your bruises can ride on religion
Since you swore it was for better or worse
But how many times must you lay down and say
It's something that I deserved
Chorus:
It ain't no big secret so forget all you heard
'cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's a blessing, for some it's a curse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Brigde:
Forget about your rosary beads to take you through your time of need
You'll pray I cross that line
And take it one day at a time
Solo
Still you try and make some sense of all the things that he had said
Was there something so wrong to turn eyes so blue
To fiery eyes of red again?

There ain't no big secret so forget all you heard
'cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's for better, for some it's for worse
But love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
There's no big secret so forget all you heard
Cause love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's a blessing, for some it's a curse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
