Love
I keep asking myself
What it means, where it leads
Where it come from
Can’t help but try to imagine
What it could be and where it’s going
Whenever I try to wrap myself around
All those why’s and wherefores and what ifs
I come up with no answers
Just this great big headache
Because all I want to do
Is wrap myself around
You
My head it doesn’t get no matter how I try
There’s just too may questions I miss
My brain it can’t compute it but my body never lies
You and me sweet baby equal bliss
You do it for me in so many ways
You do it for me, you’re the sun in my days
You do it for me when lights are low
You do it for me, that’s all I know
The night I first kissed you the future looked bright
Though I’ve been wrong a time or two, this time I was right
You’re the purr in my motor, the sooth in my soul
The coffee in my cup of cream, the sugar in my bowl
You do it for me in so many ways
You do it for me, never fails to amaze
You do it for me, you make me laugh and cry
You do it for me, I don’t know why
You’re the wishbone in my wishes, you’re the lump in my throat
You’re the spice in my kitchen, you’re the bridge for my moat
You’re the alpha in my Romeo, the laugh from my belly
You’re the charge in my batteries, the toast for my jelly
So don’t you quit me baby, don’t you ever skip town
Don’t stop kissing me or laying me down
Because you do it for me, you always will
You do it for me, you’re my number one girl
You do it for me, you know it’s true
You do it for me and I do it for you
You do it for me and I do it for you
You do it for me and I do it for you
