It's the way you're nervous when you speak   And the way I know just what you mean   It's the kind of thing that's bittersweet       It's a funny feeling deep inside   So many different sides   But still so easy to define      Cause you'll know it every time   And its not just in your mind   You can feel the butterflies   Sending chills down your spine      [Chorus:]   What is love   But a kiss on a rainy day   A smile that won't go away   A safe place to run      What is love   But a complicated simple truth   A bond between me and you   The number one   Oh that's love      And the things that never cross your mind   Now you're doing all of the time   Cause with someone special it's so right      It's like dancing when you walk   And singing when you talk   And you're happy just to be alive      Live in the moment don't pretend   Let it go or take it in   You don't have to understand   The how why and whens      [Chorus]      So take off your hat and stay for a minute   Love is a precious thing   If you let it in   You'll never know what you'll find till you give it some time   Some time      [Chorus]
