Amy stands beside herself,
Not liking what she sees.

So she feels she must apply herself
and do her best to please.

She buys their lines
and for a time
Gives in to what they lay down.

Knowing well
that they lie like hell
and never hang around.

But she wonders...

Could it be love?


Amy hides the fear inside
and makes eyes at all the boys.

Drinks her courage down
and struts around
in her fringe and her turquoise.

The things she does
in search of Love
are carved on bathroom walls.

She's got the car.
She'll buy the beer.
All you have to do is call.

And she'll wonder...

Could it be love?


Amy hates the mirror
And Amy sheds a tear

She'd rather hide
than ever go outside
But the bottle kills the fear.

She's looking for that someone
Who can make her feel worthwhile.

With just one dance
She'll take a chance
And make some cowboy smile.

Could it be love?

Oh,  Could it be love?


Amy?

May I have this dance?

Maybe walk and talk awhile?

I'm not much on great romance
But I'd love to see you smile.

And if you'll place your hand in mine...
We won't be lonely anymore.

I've looked around enough to know
It's you I'm looking for.

Could it be love?


Now...
A little cowboy wants a kiss.

Mama sends him off to bed.

He kisses Dad and baby brother
and lays down his sleepy head.

Amy !

Look around you girl !

Don't let your head hang down.

There's three
who love and need you
and we'll always be around.

It's Love !

Oh !     It's Love !
