Stone, Doug - Too Busy Being In Love Lyrics






If I had taken the time
To write down a few lines
Everytime that you crossed this heart of mine
I'd put them all in a book
How much time would that have took
The words and years have a way of slipping back

Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespere a run for his money
Written the words to the prettiest tune
That would never leave a dry eye in the room
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes I was too busy being in love

Brand new phrases appear every time you are near
All this words you inspire after all these years
But I never reached for a pen
Break the mood that I'm in
Before I knew that the words were gone again

Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespere a run for his money
Written the words to the prettiest tune
That would never leave a dry eye in the room
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes I was too busy being in love

I could have written the poem to make young lovers crazy
I could have written the movie for Hepburn and Tracey
Most beautiful song and it starts with your name
Written my way into fortune and fame
But I have no regrets for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes I was too busy being in love

    I dedicate this song to my daughter. Born April 2016. I was a young man who drank and was a stoner. I was right there when my baby girl was born and my life changed in an instant. I knew what I had to do. My buddies joke around about how I left them for my baby momma. Lol. I love you daddies girl.

    Still Love this song in 2019❤️

    Actually his mothers maiden name was stone. And he drove a truck delivering a truck delivering stone. Chose it because too many brooks had recently came out. Look on old myspace account for diamond dust billard club because our lady doing our advertizing obviously could spell billiard. Plenty of pictures of us together. We owned the place together.

    One of the most beautiful Country Video's ever done.

    Being in love is 4 a life time!! Weather being in a Relationship/Marriage!! Providing the love is mutual. If things can't b worked out then go seperate ways. It sucks 4 the 1 that gets hurt. And it takes time 2 heal. But u hafta allow u'rself 2 heal sometime. Not an easy road 2 travel.

    If I had taken the time
    To write down a few lines
    Every time that you crossed this heart of mine
    I'd put them all in a book
    How much time would that have took
    The words 'n years have a way of slipping back
    Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had
    I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
    Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money
    Written the words to the prettiest tune
    That would never leave a dry eye in the room
    My only excuse for not doing enough
    Well I was too busy being in love
    Yes I was too busy being in love
    Brand new phrases appear every time you are near
    All these words you inspire after all these years
    But I never reached for a pen
    Break the mood that I'm in
    Before I knew it the words were gone again
    Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had
    I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
    Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money

    That would never leave a dry eye in the room
    My only excuse for not doing enough
    I was too busy being in love
    Yes I was too busy being in love
    I could have written the part to make young lovers crazy
    I could have written the movie for Hepburn and Tracy
    The beautiful song and it starts with your name
    Written my way into fortune and fame
    But I have no regrets for not doing enough
    Well I was too busy being in love
    Yes I was too busy being in love
