Let's Make Love
Guys 'n' Dolls Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When we make love it send me reeling
And I'm higher than I've ever been before
And if you share this special feeling
Then your heart will tell you this time it's for sure
Oh, don't try to fight it boy
Just let your love shine through
Cause we can really make the connection
And darling, don't you know it's true

Let's make love, let's make love
Tell me what you are so afraid of
Let's take time, then we'll find
We can really make the connection
Then give it just a little time

Each day without you lasts forever
And I couldn't stand another night alone
But when we put our love together
Every minute has a meaning of it's own
We can't ignore our love
No matter what we do
Cause we can really make the connection
And now it's

Let's make love, let's make love
Tell me what you are so afraid of
Let's take time, then we'll find




We can really make the connection
Then give it just a little time

I used to hear this on radio in early 80's in the Philippines. I was 3 y.o in 1977 when this song became a hit. When will this kind of song comes back in the airwaves?

One of the forgotten great classic from the 70s. How come most of the sweetest love songs came from this decade?

@dreamyum
