That's When The Real Love Starts

A long white dress a warm summer night
Flowers in the church in the candlelight
They proclaim the love that was there in their hearts
But they found out later when the real love starts

When the rain didn't come and the crops didn't grow
With more mouths to feed than seed to sow
They stayed together when their dreams fell apart
That's when the real love starts

I was just a kid that was long ago
But I learned more from them than they'll ever know
So when the money's running out and the bills are rolling in
I just hold you close and I think of them

When the rain didn't come...

It all seems so easy when things are going right
But the true test of love lies somewhere down the line

When the rain didn't come and the crops don't grow
With more mouths to feed than seed to sow
You got to stay together if your dreams fall apart
That's when the real love starts
That's when the real love starts
