lyrics

★ IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND ★

YOU AND I WE SCREAM AND SHOUT
'TIL WE FORGET WHAT THE FIGHT IS ALL ABOUT
IT'S SO STRANGE WHENEVER WE ARE NEAR
YOU DON'T EVER LISTEN I CAN'T EVEN HEAR

IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN LET’S KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN
KEEP THE LOVE-LIGHT BURNIN'

ME AND YOU WE CRY AND CURSE
WE IGNORE WHAT REALLY MATTERS MOST
WELL IT'S SO STRANGE WHENEVER WE DISAGREE
YOU DON'T EVEN LOOK I CAN'T EVER SEE

IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN
KEEP THE LOVE-LIGHT BURNIN'

WHY DO WE DO WHAT WE DO TO EACH OTHER
WHEN WE CAN RECAPTURE THE MOMENT AND YET
BE THOSE SAME TWO LOVERS
IF WE REKINDLE THE FIRE THAT BURNED WHEN WE FIRST MET

IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN LET'S KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN
KEEP THE LOVE-LIGHT BURNIN'

IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN LET'S KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
WHY IS IT SLOWIN' DOWN KEEP THE LOVE-LIGHT BURNIN'

IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND KEEP IT TURNIN'
IF LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND
KEEP THE LOVE-LIGHT BURNIN'
