Why talk about love
When there’s so much to be done
Words can’t reveal the way I feel
They never ring true

Why talk about love
When a kiss is so much fun
Why waste  our time on words
When I’m with you

The wisest men will always recommend
That actions speak louder than words
For what’s the use, we’ve no excuse
Let’s say no more, nothing more

Night has just begun
The moon is high above
When there’s so much to be done
Why should we talk about love.
