Every Natural Thing

Nineteen birds in a sycamore tree
Everyone with his own melody
They're singing all together without a beat
Somebody tell me how come it all sound so sweet
Brother bee caught the bear with his hands in the honey (yes it is)
Stung him all over till it wasn't so funny (oh)
It's the law of the jungle man has got to survive
Seems like everything wants to wanna be alive (wants to be alive)
Yes it does
But it's the motion in the ocean, the wind in the leaves
Two got something just trying to make three
Every natural thing has got its groove
I don't know how it comes, it just do (it's the natural thing)
(Love is a natural thing)
It takes two to make it true to keep the love lights burning (yes it does)
Ain't nothing too it once you get it to turning (hey)
Let the feeling overrun you then snatch it back
I tell you, the push and the pull is a natural fact (push, pull)
But it's the motion in the ocean, the wind in the leaves
Two got something just trying to make three
Every natural thing has got its groove
I don't know how it comes, just as long as you do (it's the natural thing)
Just like the stars, just like the rain
They're all different but they're all the same
I don't know how else to tell you but go on and bet your money
On the natural thing, yeah
Love's a natural thing (natural thing)
Yes it is, love's a natural thing (natural thing)
Tellin' you that it's a natural thing (natural thing)
Do you believe that it's a (yes it is)
Yes it is, love's a natural thing (natural thing)
Yes it is, love's a natural thing (can you feel?)
Can you feel it? Yeah (can you feel?)
Can you feel it? (yes it is)
Love's a natural thing (yes it is)
