Love Can Be So Wonderful
The Temprees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh, baby love, ooh, our love, our love
Every time I see her face
You know my heart drops to my feet
And I would never feel this way
If my baby love walks so sweet
Well, I know I'm the envy of every girl
Why you better stop, take a look
Because my baby, my baby love, ooh
I gotta have her love, have her love, ooh
Baby love, ooh, I gotta have a love
A kiss for marriage, like a breathless breeze
When I'm with her I don't need anything
Want her with me all the time
'Cause my baby love, she got my mind
She's got my nose open wide
And I'm gonna keep her by my side as done
Ooh, baby love, ooh, our love, our love
Ooh, baby love, ooh, our love, our love
She can just call my name
And my heart will light a glow
The reason that I feel this way
Is because I love her so
And it is all so plain to see
That she was just meant for me
Stop, there she goes again, now
Baby love, ooh, I gotta have her love
Got to have her love
Baby love, ooh, I gotta have her love
That's my baby love, ooh
I got to have her love, baby love
