| There ain’t no time like the present
|
| To tell you about the basics of love
|
| For a while there’s nothing there,
|
| Then it’s all you think of
|
| Sometimes love ain’t easy, you don’t know how to start
|
| It’s not just words, and music, and song
|
| You use your hands as well as your heart
|
| There may not be an angel singing
|
| But you’ll know it when it comes
|
| You may not hear sweet heavenly music
|
| Sometimes it’s like falling into a set of drums
|
| Sometimes you want to be with her
|
| Sometimes you want to be alone
|
| Sometimes you just hold hands
|
| Sometimes you get down and get it on
|
| There may not be an angel singing
|
| But you’ll know it when it comes
|
| You may not hear sweet heavenly music
|
| Sometimes it’s like falling into a set of drums
|
| Sometimes love ain’t pretty
|
| Sometimes it’s downright blind
|
| It’s not for the weak of heart
|
| It don’t work at all on a sound mind
|
| You may not want it
|
| It’s the last thing you’re thinking of
|
| But when it’s got you it’s got you
|
| That’s the basics of love
|
| When it’s got you it’s got you
|
| That’s the basics of love |
