For What Is Love?
There's a hunger I feel inside.
I've had it since you're by my side.
And every day I wake I see
that you belong to me.
*** For what is love to me
without the thought of you?
My days would be too long.
For what is love
without the feel of you?
The ache would be too strong.
For there's a hunger that won't go away.
I've had it since our first day.
And I will love you tenderly
for you belong to me.
For what is love, what can it be?
Love is you to me.
For what is love, what can it be?
Love's a destiny.
REPEAT Verse 1
And end below
For what is love, what can it be?
Love is you to me.
For what is love, what can it be?
Love's our destiny.
