[Verse 1]
It's a good day, even though we argued last Monday
We made up again by late Thursday
Making love as sweet as red Kool-Aid
It's a good day, even though I hated you Wednesday
I didn't like the things you said to me
But I forgot it all by next Tuesday, woo

[Pre-Chorus]
And even though we fuss and fight
You know we always make amends, yes we do, yes we do
And everything will be alright
'Cause we'll fall in love again, oh yeah

[Chorus]
So put your hands up, celebrate every day that you got love
In the end at least you got someone
Ain't it good to know, that it's good to be in love
So put your hands up, realize, recognize that you got love
It ain't a party without your lil' someone
Ain't it good to know that it's good to be in love
(It's good to be in love)

[Verse 2]
It's a good day, even though we fought again Friday
It was on again by that Sunday
Making up like it was your birthday (It's your birthday)
It's a good day, even though the drama on Monday
Seem to last forever on that day
But we got back together like we was fresh in love

[Pre-Chorus]
And even though we fuss and fight
You know we always make amends, yes we do, yes we do
And everything will be alright
Because we'll fall in love again, oh yeah

[Chorus]
So put your hands up, celebrate every day that you got love
In the end at least you got someone
Ain't it good to know, that it's good to be in love
So put your hands up, realize, recognize that you got love
It ain't a party without your lil' someone
Ain't it good to know that it's good to be in love
(It's good to be in love)

[Bridge]
Step to the left step to the right
Put your hands up from side to side
Celebrate love, celebrate life
Celebrate the bad and the good times
Step to the left step to the right
Put your hands up from side to side
Celebrate love, celebrate life
Celebrate the bad and the good times

[Pre-Chorus]
And even though we fuss and fight
You know we always make amends, yes we do, yes we do
And everything will be alright
'Cause we'll fall in love again, oh yeah

[Chorus]
So put your hands up, celebrate every day that you got love
In the end at least you got someone
Ain't it good to know, that it's good to be in love
So put your hands up, realize, recognize that you got love
It ain't a party without your lil' someone
Ain't it good to know that it's good to be in love
So put your hands up, celebrate every day that you got love
In the end at least you got someone
Ain't it good to know, that it's good to be in love
So put your hands up, realize, recognize that you got love
It ain't a party without your lil' someone
Ain't it good to know that it's good to be in love

Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds (born April 10, 1959 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a Grammy Award-winning producer, singer, and songwriter responsible for a string of hits in the 1980s and 1990s. He has written and produced more than 20 number-one hits and won 11 Grammys—including three for Producer of the Year—for his work with Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, and Toni Braxton, as well as his own work as an artist.

Babyface got his nickname from funk legend Bootsy Collins after joining his backing band in the 1970s. He joined the group Manchild in the late ‘70s—a group that also included his frequent collaborator Daryl Simmons—before moving out West and working with the group The Deele in the early 1980s, forming a bond with his bandmate and future production partner L.A. Reid. After producing the hit “Two Occasions” for The Deele, L.A. & Babyface broke off and became one of the biggest superproducer duos in R&B, rivaling the hits of fellow superproducer duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

L.A. & ‘Face had their hands in a string of #1 R&B hits in the late '80s and early '90s from artists such as Pebbles (“Girlfriend”), Karyn White (“Superwoman”), The Whispers (“Rock Steady”), Johnny Gill (“My, My, My”) and many more. They were also instrumental in the success of post-New Edition era Bobby Brown as they produced his #1 hits “Don’t Be Cruel,” “Every Little Step,” “On Our Own,” and “Humpin' Around.” They made history with Boyz II Men in 1992 as they wrote and produced “End of the Road,” which spent a record-breaking 14 consecutive weeks atop the pop chart.
