How Love's Supposed To Go

by Alabama Shakes

Lyrics
If you only knew how love's supposed to go
It goes up and down, it goes back and forth
It never really goes if it's really love
I won't let you down
I know that you don't believe me

What are you afraid you might lose?
The more that you let me know you
The more I can care for you
And if you only knew
How easy it is to love you
As easy as breathing in
I'm gonna run you down
Running the distance for love
I'm running the distance
I wanna gather you up

And show you the parts of our love
And I wanna make it
I wanna make it

If you only knew
Course I would fight for you
And never doubt myself
People hunger for light
The way that you honor your life
I think you don't know it
It's not if the cup is half-full
Others drinking from you
I wanna drink it
Wish I could show what I see
Don't wanna look back at me
Don't point, don't scare it

What are you afraid you might do?

The more that you let me know you
The more I can care for you
And if you only knew how easy it is to love you
As easy as breathing in
I'm gonna run you down
Running the distance for love
I'm running the distance
I wanna gather you up
And show you the parts of our love
And I wanna make it

We go up and down, we go back and forth
It never really goes if it's really love
I won't let you down
I know that you don't believe me

What do you think you might do?
The more that you let me know you

The more I can care for you
And if you only knew (It goes up and down)
How easy it is to love you (It goes back and forth)
As easy as breathing in
I'm gonna run you down
Running the distance for love
I'm running the distance
I wanna make it
