Little by little now babe
I've come a long, long way
Pickin' up the pieces
That you threw away
Did you give it up
Did I let you down
Either way it doesn't matter now
'Cause I'm finally comin' 'round
I hope you find
Where you belong
Hello, goodbye
Life goes on, but¦

Chorus:
In another town
In a little place
Lookin' in the eyes of a pretty face
I ain't no fool
I know what she's thinking
I could hold her in my arms
But I could never let her stay
'Cause love, your sweet love
Still gets in the way

Minute by minute
I hear the voice in my heart
Be a man, take her hand
And make a new start
So I think a little less
I drink a little more
'Cause all in all she's everything
That I've been waiting for
She smiles that smile
I face the fact
Love's a give and take thing
But I can't give it back, oh¦

(Repeat Chorus)

It still gets in the way
Love still gets in the way
Still gets in the way
