The Monotony of Love
Written by Joe Deegan
Joe Deegan - acoustic guitar, vocals

Baby, love is not a raging fire
That burns and fades away
It’s the ember that keeps glowing
When the cold wind takes the flame
Baby, love is not a moonlit tide
That rushes and retreats
It’s the trickle of a creek bed
With a constant, steady stream
There’s a sweetness to the things that stay the same
The monotony of love is a beautiful refrain
Baby, you are a love that never changes
You’re as steadfast as the sunrise, strong as the rock of ages
Baby, I don’t care for a love like shooting stars
I want a love that lasts forever that’s graven on my heart
Baby, love not a fleeting glance
It’s waking up to see
The same face every morning
That you promise not to leave
Baby, love is the wedding ring
That we forget we wear
But day by day it binds the heart
That you and I both share
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
