Thats What You Get With Matters of the Heart

The aching muscle beats within your chest
The decision you make will put you to the test 
It’s not all fair to us in love and war
Win or lose you bear the scars with your score

We all hurt with love right from the start
But that’s what you get with matters of the heart

Can you survive the onslaught of emotion
As you stand by your mate with deep devotion
The give and take seems too much to bear
But the payoff in time nothing else can compare

We all hurt with love right from the start
But that’s what you get with matters of the heart

The pain you hide runs cold in your blood
The tears you cry drowns you in an overwhelming flood
Is it worth it only the future can ever tell
Is love a slice of heaven or a nightmare living hell

We all hurt with love right from the start
But that’s what you get with matters of the heart
