Love Wins Lyrics

Sally Mae put lipstick on her face
Hoping that it might erase
All the shadows in that place
Shaky footsteps on an unlit past
Wondering if the road would lead her back

Billy Jones sits at home all alone
Listening for the telephone
Like a dog waiting for a bone
Counting beads on a rosary
Like a man drifting out to sea

Hey hey hey
I know it's been a rough start
But baby never lose heart
I can't tell you what's around the bend
But life will bring you to your knees again
But I can tell you how the story ends

Hey hey hey
Love wins
Love wins
Love wins
Ooh child
In the end

Sally Mae works down at the marketplace
Billy Jones stops in to buy some paper plates
"Cash or credit?" she said to him
He saw her eyes and fell right in

Hey hey hey
Yeh, I know it's been a rough start
But baby don't lose heart
I can't tell you what's around the bend
Baby life will bring you to your knees again
But I can tell you how the story ends

Hey hey hey
Love wins
Love wins
Love wins
Ooh child
In the end

Sister hold your head up
And brother take my hand
We going walking through the promised land
Heedey heedey heedey
Hidey hidey ha
We're gonna get a piece of the sky
