Lyrics

YOU COULDN'T TELL IT FROM LOVE

@January 2000

I thought we had it all
Together we were complete
I wasn't ready for the fall
Believe me, you could?ve fooled me
All the memories and all the good times
Were only real in my mind
For her, it never was enough
You couldn't tell it from love

(chorus)
You couldn't tell it from love
You couldn't tell it from the real thing
It couldn't have hurt worse
If it was the kind that?s everlasting
It felt as good as it could feel
For as long as it lasted
I swear to God up above
You couldn't tell it from love

Our friends all said we had the look
And things appeared so right
Together, we wrote the book
On romance and candlelight
A dozen roses on Valentine?s Day
So many reasons she should?ve stayed
We had everything you could think of
But you couldn't tell it from love

(chorus)
