Lyrics
IT'S LIKE A SONG
WORDS: POWERS MCELHONE, ASCAP MUSIC: VARICK BACON, ASCAP
LOVE DOESN'T WEAR A NAME-TAG
LOVE DOESN'T CARRY A SIGN
LOVE DOESN'T GIVE YOU MAGIC ANSWERS
THE ONLY ONE I KNOW IS MINE
IT'S LIKE A SONG:
YOU FEEL THE MUSIC FIRST
AND SOMETHING MAKES YOU DANCE ALONG
LA-DAH-DA-DA-DAH, LA-DAH-DA-DA-DUM
IT'S NEITHER RIGHT NOT WRONG
IT'S JUST A SONG: YOU NEVER HEARD BEFORE
A SIMPLE TUNE BOTH SWEET AND STRONG
THEN OUT OF NOWHERE, WORDS COME ALONG
THAT SOMEHOW JUST BELONG
THIS IS THE BRIDGE TO YOUR FOREVER HERE
YOU NEED TO TRUST YOUR HEART
WHEN YOU'RE TOGETHER THEN ITS ALL SO CLEAR
THE LIFE YOU'VE WAITED SO LONG TO START
IT'S LIKE A SONG YOU WRITE TOGETHER NOW
AND TO EACH OTHER MAKE THIS VOW:
"FROM THIS DAY FORWARD I WILL BE TRUE
FOR ALL THE MUSIC IN MY LIFE IS YOU
ALL THE MUSIC IN MY LIFE IS YOU."
