We could be oh so h-happy
Just like the birds above
But you want lovin’ 
And I want love

We could go great to-g-gether
Just like a hand in a glove
But you want lovin’ 
And I want love

Stop all this idle chatter
What does it really matter
I’d rather hear the patter
Of little baby, wa-da-da, feet

I know what’s on your m-mind dear
It’s not what I’m thinking of
‘Cos you want lovin’
But I want love.
