why do we fall in love lyrics

Let's talk about love
Let's talk about love, love
Let's talk about

You can feel it, but you can't see it
You can't taste it, but you can hear it
You can say it, even if you don't mean it
You can buy it, even if you don't need it

You talk so much about it, what was the meaning?
It makes no sense, so what was the reason?
Tell me why do we fall in love?

They say only fools fall in love
But love was meant for all of us
So what we think we know we don't
'Cause you can never know enough

Do we think love is so material
So physical and sensual?
'Cause in the war it will destroy your soul
So no one really knows

'Cause it can make you laugh, make you cry
Make you tell the truth, make you tell a lie
It could be your life or it could be your death
Figure it out, it makes no sense, love

You can feel it, but you can't see it
You can't taste it, but you can hear it
You can say it, even if you don't mean it
You can buy it, even if you don't need it

You talk so much about it, what was the meaning?
It makes no sense, so what was the reason?
Tell me why do we fall in love?

We think love is perpetual
But the one who loves you will let you go
For pleasure that is immeasurable
It will make you leave a happy home

But all we take love more serious
Or do we really know what it means to us?
'Cause if it wasn't for love we wouldn't be born
But no one really ever knows

Why it puts us together? It tears us apart
It can even mend it or break your heart
What we have for ourself, what you say to your child
But I still wonder why, love

You can feel it, but you can't see it
You can't taste it, but you can hear it
You can say it, even if you don't mean it
You can buy it, even if you don't need it

You talk so much about it, what was the meaning?
It makes no sense, so what was the reason?
Tell me why do we fall in love?

Physical affection, emotions
Feelings, honest, wanting, opposites of desire
Longing, needing, craving, lusting
Baby, you light my fire

Graduation, kissing, hugging, touching
Yearning, sexing, mother to her child
These are the things that we really need
When we talk about this thing called love

You can feel it, but you can't see it
You can't taste it, but you can hear it
You can say it, even if you don't mean it
You can buy it, even if you don't need it

You talk so much about it, what was the meaning?
It makes no sense, so what was the reason?
Tell me why do we fall in love?

You can feel it, but you can't see it
You can't taste it, but you can hear it
You can say it, even if you don't mean it
You can buy it, even if you don't need it

You talk so much about it, what was the meaning?
It makes no sense, so what was the reason?
Tell me why do we fall in love?
