None
So delighted
Got the future all planned
Figured out in advance
And now, you decided
That emotion can wait
Till a more convenient day
But you gotta let go
Cause you don't know what your missing
There's a whole other world
Waiting for you
No, you know you're not alone
What good is the life that your livin'
When your heart is empty
Come with me boy I know you'll love it
Chorus:
Love is gonna getcha
If you give it half of a chance
Oh Baby
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
Cause love is gonna getcha
You try to fight it
By playing your part
The untouchable heart
Oh but I just don't buy it
No matter how hard you try
To keep it locked up inside
Oh you've gotta let go
Stop hiding under fear's protection
Let me take your places you've never been
Oh, we'll take it real slow
If we can find the right direction
The good times are waiting
And I'm still anticipating
Love is gonna getcha
If you give it half of a chance
Oh Baby
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
Cause love is gonna getcha
Love is gonna getcha
Oh, if you give it half of a chance
Yeah Baby
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
Cause love is gonna getcha
(sax solo)
You know, love is gonna getcha
If you take a chance
Oh Baby
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
Oh, you gotta let go
Cause you don't know what your missing
There's a whole other world
Waiting for you
No, you know you're not alone
What good is the life that your livin'
When your heart is empty
Come with me boy I know you'll love it
Love is gonna getcha
If you give it half of a chance
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
Cause love is gonna getcha
Love is gonna getcha
If you give it half of a chance
Oh darling
You don't know it but I betcha
You're gonna find romance
