Did you think he was sweet, did you think he could change, did you think all there's good in him, I can tell
And whether I'm right, and whether you know it though, would you say it's over now, to go to hell
Or would you say that that's love that's on the table
Or would you say that that's love that's on the table

My dear, that that's love that's on the table
My dear, we had a house, we had a car that year
We had a goodness of heart, you can't keep away
And if I came home, or if I slept in my brother's home
Would you say there's good in him, I can tell
Or would you say that that's love that's on the table
My dear, that that's love that's on the table


My dear, that that's love that's on the table
My dear, but I was too dumb to recognize
Yeah, I didn't look like you
And I was too young to realize
Something was true
Lord, lift me up over all gentlemen
Cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong
And Lord, lift me up over all gentlemen
Cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong
And Lord, lift me up out of the slum
Ten minutes, cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong
And Lord, lift me up over all gentlemen
Cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong
And then there, that's love that's on the table
My dear, there, that's love that's on the table
A table, my dear
