We're coming nice and easy
Smooth and tender
But right now, alright
You woke this morning with my face in your eyes
Voice in your ears and you think it must be craziness
You made up your face to face up today
But your mind is still in yesterday and the words I said
I tell you, baby, now (this is love)
You ain't got it (till you've got it)
And when you got it got to know it
Or it's gonna burn you down
I tell you, honey (this is the time)
To come running (into my arms)
I'll give you like now (you never had)
I tell you now, this is what they call a real love
The last time was so bad you promised yourself not again
You said, said, "No more pain, no more tears, all will be well"
But when we met, it welled up in your this curdling stream
Feelings you can't help, you keep seeing me in your dreams
I tell you, baby, now (this is love)
You ain't got it (till you've got it)
And when you got it got to know it
Or it's gonna run you mad
I tell you, honey (this is the time)
To come running (into my arms)
I'll give you like now (you never had)
I tell you now, this is what they call a real love
See what we've found is rare like gold, everlasting like a diamond
What we've got is from heaven, only once in a while given
So go on forget your doubts
Tell you, baby, now
(This is love)
Yes, yes now (real love)
Yeah, yeah (this is love)
Real love, oh, Lord have mercy
(This is love)
Your love (real love) love, love, love, love, love
(This is love)
This is love
You ain't got it (till you've got it)
And when you got it got to know it
Or it's gonna burn you down
I tell you, honey (this is the time)
To come running (into my arms)
I'll give you like now (you never had)
I tell you now, this is what they call a real love
(This is love)
You ain't got it (till you've got it)
