Lyrics: “What Love Can Do”
From the first breath we take, twenty-seven thousand days
Or something like that they say it’s all that we have
Don’t you throw your life away
It’s too beautiful to waste
To live for anything, anything else but love
Only one thing changes everything
Only one sure cure for every pain
The answer’s right there waiting for you to chose
It doesn’t cost you anything
But your world will never be the same
Take it from me cause I’m living proof
That’s what love can do
I’m living proof that’s what love can do
I’m living proof that’s what love can do
A word we rarely understand hold the key to the heart of man
It can shatter the darkness and it can heal every soul
Once you’ve tasted heaven’s love
Nothing else will be enough
You’ll want more everyday, you’ll want to give it away
Only one thing changes everything
Only one sure cure for every pain
The answer’s right there waiting for you to chose
It doesn’t cost you anything
But your world will never be the same
Take it from me cause I’m living proof
That’s what love can do
I’m living proof that’s what love can do
It’s what makes the world go round
It’s what makes the lost get found
I’m living proof that’s what love can do, yeah
It’s what makes the world go round
It’s what makes the lost get found
I’m living proof that’s what love can do, oh
That’s what love can do
It doesn’t cost you anything
But your world will never be the same
Take it from me cause I’m living proof
That’s what love can do, it can do, it can do, oh it can do
Take it from me
Oh I’m living proof that’s what love can do
That’s what love can do
My favorite from this album. 🙂

I love this song ! Thank you for sharing ! <3
Isn’t it interesting how varied our favorites are from Danny’s albums? I’m glad I captured it. I try to capture songs that aren’t widely available. Not sure DGNews needs another version of TYHTBA 😉
BTW, I saw this morning that TC is back to positive spins on Mediabase. I’m going with the theory that they wanted to allow some young artists around him (Ryan Stevenson, etc.) to get a chance to move up…. that’s my theory and I’m sticking to it.
nice video Jan
I think this is the song I wrote about when the audio versions first went to youtube and we were choosing our favorites from the album. I wrote that I liked the horns on this song.
Danny has horns now (in his band).
I like the added brass to the band, too. Danny had told me he would add more musicians (horns) to the band before background singers. So I guess he is happy doing his own background vocals and using the tapes? As he put it, I’m really particular on vocals.
Beautiful. 🙂
