Really That is All

(lyrics by Andy Brettell)

when a lover walks away never never to return
do songbirds stop singing ? do stars cease to burn ?
do the streams run dry ? or the mighty mountains fall ?
oh no ! you just hurt for a little while, yeah, really that is all . . .

when someone special says love is dead, that they've found a someone new
does the earth turn inside out ? does the grass turn blue ?
does the giant oak tree crumble ? do good deeds appal ?
oh no ! you just feel a little lost again, yeah, really that is all . . .

hey, hey, hey, really that is all . . .
hey, hey, hey, really that is all . . .

so now you've set me free, I won't see your smile again
will I scream with sorrow ? will I die with pain ?
will my heart stop beating ? will I change beyond recall ?
oh no ! I 'll just keep on loving you forever - really that is all . . .

hey, hey, hey, really that is all . . .
hey, hey, hey, really that is all . . .
