Either it’s love or it isn’t
There’s no compromise
Either it’s real or it isn’t
There’s no otherwise
Don’t want your arms
Don’t want your lips
If your heart isn’t mine to the core
Take them away 
Come back the day
You’ve learned what a heart is for
Either you’re true or you’re not
There’s no in between
If you’ve been lied to by someone
You’ll know what I mean
It took far too many romances
To teach this fool to be wise
Either it’s love or it isn’t
There’s no compromise
