In The Name Of Love - Billy Dean

He said baby I love you

And she believed it was true

In the back seat of his Malibu they made love

For the worst and for the best

With their best friends as their guests

And in her mama’s wedding dress she said I do

She did it in the name of love

She did it in the name of love

He was all she was thinking of

She did it in the name of love

Did it in the name of love

It’s amazing what a heart’s prepared to do

In the name of love

Forever didn’t last too long

A few short months and he was gone

But the love they made was growing strong inside her

She said I can’t afford to raise him right

She asked for help but got advice

Couldn’t choose to take a life so she had a child

She did it in the name of love

She did it in the name of love

He was all she was thinking of

She did it in the name of love

Did it in the name of love

It’s amazing what a heart’s prepared to do

In the name of love

She drove by his house today

And from a distance watched him play

Never gave herself away and cried

Now the only thing that keeps her sane

Is knowing deep inside…
