Gotta love
the mainstream and the byways
Gotta love the wilderness of Sundays
And a record deal that never pays
And always kids talking you down
Gotta love the world disappearing
under prints
Gotta love the cracks in the
worn out pavements
And a birthday tie so kindly sent
And the crumbling up new town
The better you love,
the better you got,
whether you know it or not
The better you love,
the better you got,
whether you know it or not
Gotta love the business
park and the estate
Gotta love the personalized number plates
And every easy line of tabloid hate
Making out to be something new
Gotta love the eight -year
-old smoking boys
And the student house electronic noise
And every next bunch of real McCoys
Keep trying to knock out to you
The better you love,
the better you got
Whether you know it or not
The better you love,
the better you got
Whether you know it or not
Gotta love the in -depth report
and the soundbites
And the flirt -lit football
on a Tuesday night
And every detail of the elev
en o 'clock fight
You can set your watch by it too
Gotta love the ever -longer
list of birthdays
And all the little new ones
that come to stay
You even gotta love the ones
that slip away
Busting in, fading out on you
The better you love, the better you got
Whether you know it or not
The better you love, the better you got
Whether you know it or not
The better you love, the better you got
Whether you know it or
not
You
