She was waiting alone at the station

Praying for her train to arrive

Thinking 'bout her destination

The tattered bag had all she had in life

She turned her back on her family

She turned her back on her friends

She turned her back on a married man

When she took off that wedding band

She said, "I'm giving up, silver clouds have turned to gray

Had enough, there's got to be a better way"

Giving up, you know you've gotta walk

There's some things in life still worth fighting for

Ain't no big secret so forget all you've heard

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

For some it's for better, for some it's for worse

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word, love ain't nothing

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

That your battered bones would have to explain

Giving up, nothing's changing but the score

Had enough, every night love turns to war

Give it up, gave it all and wanted more

It ain't nothing worth dying for

It's no big secret so forget all you've heard

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

For some it's for better, for some it's for worse

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word, love ain't nothing

Forget your mama's Rosary beads

To get you through this time of need

You know you gotta cross that line

You take it one day at a time

Had enough, the silver clouds all turning gray

I'm heading for a better day

It's no big secret so forget all you've heard

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

For some it's for better, for some it's for worse

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing, it ain't nothing now, baby

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing, nothing now, baby

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing

Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word

Love ain't nothing
