Alan Jackson – Livin’ On Love Lyrics

Two young people without a thing
Say some vows and spread their wings
Settle down with just what they need
Livin’ on love

She don’t care ’bout what’s in style
She just likes the way he smiles
It takes more than marble and tile
Livin’ on love

Livin’ on love, buyin’ on time
Without somebody nothing ain’t worth a dime
Just like an old fashion story book rhyme
Livin’ on love
It sounds simple, that’s what you’re thinkin’
But love can walk through fire without blinkin’
It doesn’t take much when you get enough
Livin’ on love

Two old people without a thing
Children gone but still they sing
Side by side in that front porch swing
Livin’ on love

He can’t see anymore
She can barely sweep the floor
Hand in hand they’ll walk through that door
Just livin’ on love

Livin’ on love, buyin’ on time
Without somebody nothing ain’t worth a dime
Just like an old fashion story book rhyme
Livin’ on love
It sounds simple that’s what you’re thinkin’
But love can walk through fire without blinkin’
It doesn’t take much when you get enough
Livin’ on love

Livin’ on love, buyin’ on time
Without somebody nothing ain’t worth a dime
Just like an old fashion story book rhyme
Livin’ on love
It sounds simple that’s what you’re thinkin’
But love can walk through fire without blinkin’
It doesn’t take much when you get enough
Livin’ on love

No it doesn’t take much when you get enough
Livin’ on love
