Different Kind of Love

Lyrics to song, around 1982

Chord progression: 1st section D C G; 2nd section Bm F#m C Em Bm G D

1st section

Ooo I feel so good I'm in love again
Only this time it's different maybe
This time around I ain't gonna hold on.
I'll open my heart and say that I love you
Give you everything I got I will
Give you all the love I got to give.
But this time we break on out of the pattern
Loving then going our own ways
Sharing but keeping out own separate lives.
Not always expecting you to be there
Getting along for myself nicely
Learning to love and live with myself.

2nd section

But of course I know
There are many complications
Always coming up against our fears.
It's always easier
To say than to do
But I've got to learn to love for free.
And all our crap comes out
We lay it on the table
There for us to plainly see.
Working and growing our way
To come kind of understanding
Playing our ways in to each other's hearts.

Next 1st section

So all I got to say is that I love you
Yes I really love you, truly I do
Even though sometimes it's hard to really tell.
But sometimes my old ways gets in the way
Messing things up between you and me
Coming between us and I don't want that.
But love is a crazy thing to be in
Sometimes it gets so confusing
Sometimes I just don't know which way is up.
But one thing I know for certain is this
I want to love but not own you, oh no
I want to let you be and love you for yourself.

Next 2nd section

But once again we go
Round and round in circles
Always something else new popping up.
Just when you think you know
You got this whole thing figured out
You really find out that you've just begun.
To understanding love
To understanding life
To understanding that you can't understand.
There really is no need
To hold on to love with our greed
Give it away and then you shall be freed.

Ending:

Ooo I feel so good I'm in love again
Only this time is different maybe
This time around I ain't gonna hold on
This time around I ain't gonna hold on
This time around I ain't gonna hold on
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do, do do do.
