Whoa, here it comes

That funny feelin' again windin'

Me up inside

Every time we touch

Hey, I don't know

Oh, tell me where to begin

'Cause I never ever

Felt so much, hey!

An' I can't recall any love at all

Oh baby, this blows 'em all away

It's got what it takes

So tell me why can't this be love?

Straight from my heart oh tell

Me why

Can't this be love?

I tell myself:

"Hey! Only fools rush in" an' only

Time will tell

If we stand the test of time

All I know

You've got to run to win an' I'll

Be damned if

I'll get hung up on the line, hey!

No, I can't recall any thing at all

Oh baby, this blows 'em all away

Woo! It's got what it takes

So tell me why can't this be love?

You want it straight from the heart oh, tell

Me why

Can't this be love?

It's got what it takes

So tell me why can't this be love?

Straight from the heart, oh tell

Me why

Can't this be love?

Baby, why can't this be love?

Got to know why can't this

Be love?

I wanna know why can't this

Be love?
