I know how it feels to be head over heels

To be lost in true love and the light of the moon

When everything seems to be coming up roses

And every word seems to be rhyming with June

Suddenly, all of your dreams have come true

Happiness lives in your heart

Then out of nowhere, one becomes two

And everything seems to be falling apart



Is it love? When your heart, feels like its broken

Is it love? And you just cant take anymore

Is it love? When theres nothing left to be spoken

Is it love? And theres nothing worth listening for

Is it love? ooh ooh



I know what it means to get caught up in dreams

And in prayers that are answered with each passing day

When loving and laughter are birds of a feather

And sharing and caring is one simple way

You know youll never be alone

That someone will always be near

Then you turn around when your best friend is gone

Oh, where do they go? When they just disappear?



Is it love? When your heart, feels like its broken

Is it love? And you just cant take anymore

Is it love? When the good times have all been forgotten

Is it love? And you fear there wont be anymore

Is it love? ooh ooh



Theres no answer, there seems to be nothing to say

In your anger would you even hear anyway

It was magic but somehow youve broken the spell

It was heaven and somehow its turned into hell



Is it love? When you know that your heart has been broken

Is it love? And you just cant take it anymore

Is it love? When you feel more than you could imagine

Is it love? Now theres nothing thats worth living for

Is it love? ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Another expression of love....

You could be falling in love...

Oh, to be in love.... I want to be in love....

C'mere darlin' lets's talk about it......

Come on right over here

Sit down....it could be....love....I want to be in love
