Whoa, whoa
Love, love, love, love
Love, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hmmm, oh, hmmm
Love
Whoa
Memories of yesterday
Lonliness my way to say
I needed you and all you do
To come and rescue me
The day I saw your face
Everything fell into place
The melody of you and me
The love song that we share
1 - And they say
Love isn't love
Until you got someone to share it with
And I got you
And it has made me realize
That love, oh love
Love is something that we take advantage of
Through you I've learned that love is on my side
I try
But the feeling still flows deep inside
It takes my breath away
When it trys to stay
I only love you more
Oh don't try to tell me I'm a fool
I know this is something new
Just let me through
I here to do whatever you want me to
Repeat 1
On my side, on my side
Love is on my side
I sit here and wonder why
I can't get you off my mind
A special scent
And all you mean to me
Whoa, it's the love that just won't go away
I hear it in the things you say
I can't ignore (I can't ignore)
I want you more (I want you more)
And more and more and more and more
Repeat 1 till end

Line by Line Meaning
Memories of yesterday
Reminiscing about the past
Loneliness my way to say
Expressing my solitude through my actions
I needed you and all you do
I required your help and all your abilities
To come and rescue me
To save me from my situation
The day I saw your face
The day I first laid eyes on you
Everything fell into place
Everything just seemed to work out
The melody of you and me
The music of our relationship
The love song that we share
The beautiful story of our love
And they say
People often say
Love isn't love
True love can't exist
Until you got someone to share it with
Until you have someone to experience it with
And I got you
But I have you
And it has made me realize
This realization has come to me
That love, oh love
True love, it seems
Love is something that we take advantage of
Love is often overlooked or underappreciated
Through you I've learned that love is on my side
Thanks to you, I know that love is working in my favor
I try
I attempt to forget
But the feeling still flows deep inside
But my emotions are still strong
It takes my breath away
It's astonishing and powerful
When it tries to stay
When it tries to linger
I only love you more
My love for you only grows
Oh don't try to tell me I'm a fool
Don't try to convince me otherwise
I know this is something new
I understand that this is something unconventional
Just let me through
Please allow me to continue
I'm here to do whatever you want me to
I'm willing to do anything for you
On my side, on my side
Working to my advantage
Love is on my side
Love is working in my favor
I sit here and wonder why
I ponder on the reason
I can't get you off my mind
I can't stop thinking about you
A special scent
A distinctive aroma
And all you mean to me
And your importance to me
Whoa, it's the love that just won't go away
This love is persistent
I hear it in the things you say
I recognize it in your words
I can't ignore (I can't ignore)
I can't push it aside
I want you more (I want you more)
I desire you even more
And more and more and more and more
Increasingly and infinitely
