Lyrics

9. NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART
(Music & Lyric by Louis Rosen)

They knew where they were going ‘till they didn’t know
They knew with every choice you pay a price
They never had imagined a scenario
Getting caught in the undertow
Between perdition and paradise

Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart

She tells herself she’ll love again some other day
He tells himself, “Go on, what’s done is done”
But the dream of life together will not fade away
They know there’d be hell to pay
The odds of redemption – next to none

Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart

Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything

[Instrumental chorus]

Some nights he still yearns for her company
She might even call him now and then
They don’t discuss the future that they hoped would be
Or dwell on the mystery
Of why they couldn’t make it way back when

Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart
Love – not for the faint of heart

Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything…
