Maybe love is like a stray dog
Maybe love is like a stray dog
You don't wanna pick it up and put it in your car
But you can't just let it starve

Maybe love makes a mess
Maybe love makes a mess
You've got a white carpet
And it's got muddy paw prints

Maybe love keeps you up all night
Maybe love keeps you up all night
With it's barking and crying and whining
But it's alright

Maybe love steals your good sense
Maybe love steals your good sense
A little bit crazy, a little in love
There ain't no difference

Maybe love gives you back your tenderness
Maybe love gives you back your tenderness
When you love real hard
You ain't nothing but softness

Maybe love is like a stray dog
Maybe love is like a stray dog
It don't belong to you
But you still give it all you got
It don't belong to you
But you still give it your whole heart
It don't belong to you
But you can still give it all you got
