Call It Love
Faces Down Quartet; Sondre Lerche Lyrics

There is romance
Romance and love are two different things

And there is love
Love is an emotion deeper than romance

There are reports of a heart-robbing beauty whose victim I know
There are rumors of a beautiful person I know who has stolen hearts before

I can't hesitate or wait
I can't delay this any longer

'Cause I don't speak that language
Because I don't understand the language of love

I don't know that tone
I'm not familiar with the tone of love

I can't translate from right to wrong
I can't distinguish between what is right and wrong when it comes to love

I can just call it love
All I can do is call it love

Yes, you heard right
What I said is true

I call it love
I'm labeling this feeling as love

That seems to be the only system that they know of
Romance and love are the only ways people know how to label these emotions

But why be satisfied with only love
Why limit ourselves to just one way of looking at love?

When there are games you should know of
There are other ways to express love

Such as romance and turtledoves
Like the romantic and innocent feelings of young love

Who wonder if it's love
People in a new relationship often question whether it's love or not

I wanna call it love
I want to attach the label of love to this feeling

Can we dance instead of walking?
Can we express our love through movement?

We wanna break in to love's industry
We want to deeply explore the depths of love

Lie down where it's machinery slows down
Take a moment to slow down and enjoy the moment

When we've danced our socks off and it's late
When we've fully expressed ourselves and it's getting late

We'll lie down to anticipate forever
We'll embrace the moment and look forward to eternity together

When we romance
When we engage in romance

I feel a part
I feel connected

Of the loveliest human creature that I know by far
Of the most beautiful person I've ever met

Who stays away from other boys
Who isn't interested in anyone except me

'Cause she knows where she's life or death or love
Because she knows the risks of love and is willing to take them

Where she is thought so highly of
Where she is greatly respected

Where someone calls her love
Where someone loves her and isn't afraid to show it

I wanna call it love
I want to show my love for her

Darling explosions!
A metaphor for the intense feelings of love between the two people

We are chemistry without chemicals
The natural chemistry between us without the need for outside substances

A constant chain outside us both
A connection and bond between them that transcends physical boundaries

Remember!
Don't forget

I've never felt so right before
He's never felt this good about a relationship before

And chances are it could be so
There's a good chance this relationship will work out

When we romance
When we express our love

Lie down where it's machinery slows down
Take a moment to enjoy the moment

When we've danced our socks off and it's late
When we've fully expressed ourselves and it's getting late

We'll lie down to anticipate forever
We'll embrace the moment and look forward to eternity together

There is romance that changes its course
Romantic feelings can change direction

Or just sad statistics I answer with anti-remorse
Either way, he responds with a lack of sadness or regret

When I am satisfied don't tell me so
He doesn't want to know when he's reached the peak of love

Just let me go on and on and on
Let him enjoy the moment as long as he can

And as I wake up by your side
As he wakes up next to his partner

I'll know that it is love
He'll be sure that what he feels is love

Or at least I call it love
Or at least he thinks it's love
