Album: New Moves (1986)

Then It's Love

Some people say that love is a rose
Maybe they've hit it right on the nose
But other folks say that it's like the sun
Well, a long time ago daddy said to me
I'll help you clear up the mystery
I'll give you a simple rule of thumb.

If it knocks you off your feet
Then it's love, then it's love
If it makes your life complete
Then it's love, then it's love
If it turns you upside down
Then it's love, then it's love.
If it makes your world go 'round
Then it's love.

The dictionary won't tell you much
If love is the word you're looking up
I don't believe that the definition's right
And the encyclopedia won't reveal
The crazy way you start to feel
Kissing on a moonlit summers night.

If it knocks you off your feet
Then it's love, then it's love
If it makes your life complete
Then it's love, then it's love
If it turns you upside down
Then it's love, then it's love
If it makes your world go 'round
Then it's love.

[Instrumental]

So gonna say that love is a game
Maybe compare it to a flame
Or say it's a medicine that heals
But a band of experts could fight all night
And never figure out which one is right
But they'd agree on how it makes you feel.

If it knocks you off your feet
Then it's love, then it's love
If it makes your life complete
Then it's love, then it's love
If it turns you upside down
Then it's love, then it's love
If it makes your world go 'round
Then it's love.

Well, if it makes your world go 'round
Then it's love. ooh ooh ooh...
