Everybody's reading the book
About the boy from Bethlehem
Story of a kid who would change
The world with the palm of his hand
So bring me some toast before you go

Because I'm beginning to see that
The story is quite okay
Cuz I've seen movies, and I wear the shirts
But what does this story really say
From my love didn't come from fantasy
Or to play glamorous roles, for the
Company man that we've all made him out to be
Is not what the story has told

So entertain me if you want to
But I've heard it all
If you feel the need to say
More than what's been said
But I'm sure Love can stand on His own
But I'm sure Love can stand on His own

Still she sings her top 20
About the boy she doesn't even know
Written by a man they call money
He's winning birds while saving souls
It's of the man, the marketing plans
And a new Mercedes for his 17 year old wife

He's really diggin' on the girl
With the top 20 ain't it funny
For my Love didn't come to win Grammys
Or to be the king of rock n' roll, for the

Company man that we've all made him out to be
Is not what the story has told

So entertain me if you want to
But I've heard it all
If you feel the need to say
More than what's been said
But I'm sure Love can stand on His own
Oooh, entertain me if you want to
I'm sure Love can stand on His own
I'm sure Love can stand on His own
Love can stand on His own
So turn your eyes from the glow
And remember the Son
