Love And It's Glory 歌詞

Love And It's Glory - Minnie Riperton

I'll tell you a story about love and its glory

 

Of how when you're true to your heart

 

You'll be free

 

Picture a tropical paradise

Folks just like you and me

 

A young girl called Maya was loved by Aliya

A young man who came from a poor family

As they grew older Aliya would hold her;

Together they dreamed of the day they'd marry

It's a lonely world my children;

You've got to do the best you can

If you've find a chance to love

You'd better grab it any way you can

 

Young Maya's father decided his daughter

Should marry a man with lots of money

She begged and she pleaded

Aliya she needed;

Now Maya's crying on her wedding day

It's a lonely world my children

You've got to do the best you can

If you've find a chance to love

You'd better grab it any way you can

 

Picture a tropical paradise

 

Folks just like you and me

 

Down come Aliya

Him scooped up the bride from

The place where she stands at the ceremony

The minister backed up the father

He cracked up

The groom

Him fell down to the ground on his knees

It's a lonely world my children;

You've got to do the best you can

If you've found a chance to love

You'd better grab it any way you can

 

Go on Aliya Carry your bride

Take her where the sky meets the sea

Go on Aliya Ooh hoo hoo hoo

Ooh ooh hoo hoo hoo

 

I'll tell you a story about love and its glory

 

Of how when you're true to your heart

 

You'll be free
