You're always so caught up in love
That you lose yourself inside it
Even when you think you're in control
You could never step outside it
Cause love's idea is dangerous
And it takes hold before you know it
You act in ways that you can't explain
Without reference to its logic
But love is only affection
Yeah love, a mere emotion
Love, we follow a function
Now that's love, and love will let you down
Now just because you say your love is true
Well don't think that I'm a hater
It's just that even though it has its place
Well that don't mean there's nothing greater
How can we learn to live with love?
Well that's a question with no answer
Ain't no alternative to the game
But we can minimize the drama
Because love is only affection
Yeah love, a mere emotion
Love, we follow a function
Now that's love, and love will let you down
