Funny Thing About Love

Was it the midnight hour or the crescent moon

Or sweet magnolia made me speak too soon?

When I said I love you, you looked the other way

Can't take it back-wish it was yesterday

There's 'bout a thousand words I coulda got away with

But the night blooming jasmine overtook my senses

& I know deep down you feel the same way too so

Kiss me boy and lay down your defenses

CHORUS

Well, it's a hot summer night-cool river flowin'

And it's a funny thing about love-

You can get there without knowing

We watched a comet dance across the southern sky

I saw the future right there in your eyes

So tell me now or tell me later-take your time or lead the way

But that silly grin says it all-there's only one thing left to say

CHORUS

It's a sunny spring morning, hot coffee flowin'

And it's a funny thing about being in love-

You can get there without knowin'

BRIDGE

When I look back on that awkward night

The risk was well worth takin'

I took a leap of faith-and you did, too

Even if you were fakin'

When you reach that moment-it's fish or cut bait

Wait a minute too long, it might be too late

Three simple words turn into so much more

When you know it's right, it's what you're livin' for

CHORUS

It's a lazy winter day-storm clouds overflowin'

And it's a funny thing about love-give it half a chance

It just keeps growin'

And it's a funny thing about love-

You can get there without knowing
