I Was In Love With A Girl Once Lyrics

I was in love with a girl once.
She was in love with me.
Ours was the kind of love,
that wasn't meant to be.
Oh we tried, oh we tried, oh we tried real hard.
But you can't fight fate and you can't fight God.
When it was time to say goodbye,
Our hearts broke,
and we both cried.
No, love is not easy,
love is not free,
it comes with a cost that few can afford,
but those that can, how great, how great is their reward.
I am young and not yet old,
but i have yet to find that lasts.
One day soon not far from now,
I'll find the one to redeem my past.
Until then I'll carry on.
I'll live my life, I'll sing my songs.
sure i got my hurt, I got my pain,
but I'm alive, I can't complain.
sure I got my hurt, I got my pain,
but i'm alive, I can't complain.
