Lyrics:

Love's a thing that needs one to thrive on

Then it grows, at least that's what I've been told

You can't love someone if you find that

All you get in return is a heart that's cold

Refrain:

They say you need love to love

You gotta have love to love

They all say it works that way

But if it's true

Why do I love you?

Seems like you keep tryin' to break me

You do things designed just to make me cry

And I've heard that if warm lips don't touch you

Love won't grow no matter how much you try

(refrain)

[instrumental]

You gotta have love to love

They all say it works that way

But if it's true

Why do I love you?

[repeat and fade]
