Let Me Tell You About Love
Wynonna Judd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's been this thing 'tween a woman and a man
Well, I don't know but I do believe
It started in the garden with Adam and Eve
Sampson and Delilah had their fling
'Til she cut his hair and clipped his wing
It don't matter how the story's told
[Chorus]
Let me tell you about love
About the moon and stars above
It's what we've all been dreamin' of
Let me tell you about love
Well, Bonaparte and Josephine
I believe they had a pretty good scene
Until she said, Bony boy, we're through!
That's when he met his Waterloo
Julie baby and Romeo
Fell in love and stole the show
I know they are history
But there ain't been nothin' like you and me
[Chorus]
Now Sheba she was a beauty queen
The purtiest thing that you ever have seen
Soloman he was a mighty wise
'Til Sheba she done caught his eye
The world would be in a dreadful fix
If it wasn't for the love between the cats and chicks
This world wouldn't amount to much
Without a hug and a kiss and a tender touch
[Chorus]
Let me tell you about love
Let me tell you about love
