Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I started to write this song about you
And then I decided that I would write it all about love
Then 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 L-O-V-E
[Chorus]
Love is a walk down Main Street (Love,)
Love is an apple and it's so sweet (Oh love)
Love is something that can't be beat (Love)
L-O-V-E is strange to me, oh (Love)
[Verse 2]
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is free
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
Love is a story that just can't be told (Oh love)
Can't you feel it burning more and more? (Love)
Stop and look at the big wheel roll (Love)
[Verse 3]
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is free
I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell the story about love
[Bridge]
I didn't mean to make you mad
A sweet story, I thought I had
But maybe time will bring us together
And I can be such a happy fella about love
[Chorus]
Love is something that's so divine
Love is a feeling that's a friend of mine (Oh love)
It can't be measured by no sign (Love)
It's in your heart or even in your mind (Love)
[Outro]
'Bout love, love is as bright as a morning star
Where it is, I don't know how far (Oh love)
