[Intro]
L-O-V-E (Love)
[Verse 1]
Baby, I started to write this song about you
Then I decided
That I would write it all about love
And it appeared to me, that you wasn't happy
And that's for sure
Positively, that's what the world is made of
So give me more of that love
[Chorus]
Love is a walk down main street
Love is an apple that is so sweet
Love is something that can't be beat now
L-O-V-E is strange to me
[Verse 2]
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see salvation is dreaming
It's all in the heavens, can't you see
You can always depend on me
To give you love
[Chorus]
Love is a flower in my soul now
Love's a feeling and a story that can't be told
Can't you feel it burning more and more
Stop and look at the big wheel roar
[Verse 3]
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see salvation is dreaming
I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell this story 'bout love
[Verse 4]
I didn't mean to make you mad
Sweet story, I thought I had
Maybe time will bring us together
And, and I could be such a happy fella
About love
[Chorus]
Love is something that is so divine
Love's a feeling that's a friend of mine, yeah
Can't be measured by no sign I said
In your heart and even in your mind
Love is a walk down main street
Love is an apple that is so sweet
Love is something that can't be beat, no
L-O-V-E is strange to me
Ooh, oooh, oh no, it's a story that just can't be beat, oh no
Oh, feel it burning now
Stop and look at the big wheel roar
L-O-V-E (Love)
[Verse 1]
Baby, I started to write this song about you

And it appeared to me, that you wasn't happy
