This Thing We Call Love


This thing we call love 

Not the one sent from above

The love that we think is right

The love we wait for all of our lives

The love that keeps us up at night 

The love that's wrong but feels so right

The love that can make you feel so blue

The love that you have for me 

The love I have for you 

Why is everybody in such a rush to find this thing we call love

I haven't had much luck so I'm satisfied with the love from above 

This thing we call love

Much like a white dove

Can be pure and flee at anytime

Man I wish I had a dime for every time

I THOUGHT I felt this thing we call love
