Love is funny, or it's sad,
Or it's quiet, or it's mad.
It's a good thing, or it's bad,
But beautiful . . .
Beautiful to take a chance,
And if you fall, you fall.
And I'm thinkin'
I wouldn't mind at all . . .
Love is tearful, or it's gay,
It's a problem, or it's play.
It's a heartache either way,
But beautiful . . .
And I'm thinkin'
If you were mine,
I'd never let you go,
And that would be the beautiful I know.
