Under The Influence

Maybe youve taken on a different name
Tired of playing everybody elses game
Maybe youre living in a jealous town
Oh so tired of rumours going round
What we do, under the influence of love
Maybe youll try out a new set of clothes
Begin to like the things that you hated the most
There aint no rule, there aint no circumstance,
To save you baby now, when youre in a trance
What we do, under the influence of love
Hush now baby, dont cry
To make it right, we have to see both sides
And the day is never done...
Think about it
Maybe you learn how to communicate
With that someone who just cant wait
Maybe youll see the world with different eyes
Maybe youll even make a sactifice
What we do, under the influence of love
Some they cant live within
Some they cant live without
When love finally arrives
Some they keep shutting it out and
Maybe this ones for you
Baby, dont be afraid
There aint nothing you can do when it takes you away
Maybe youll give up everything youve got
To prove youre right, when they say youre not
Maybe youll change just about everything around you
Become a slave to the spell that bound you
What we do, under the influence of love
Hush now baby, dont cry
To make it right we have to see both sides
And the day is never done
Think about it - for the fortunate ones
Maybe youll give up everything youve got
To prove youre right, when they say youre not
Maybe youll change everything around you
Under the influence of love
