Basics of Love - Ray Wylie Hubbard

There ain’t no time like the present

To tell you about the basics of love

For a while there’s nothing there,

Then it’s all you think of

Sometimes love ain’t easy, you don’t know how to start

It’s not just words, and music, and song

You use your hands as well as your heart

There may not be an angel singing

But you’ll know it when it comes

You may not hear sweet heavenly music

Sometimes it’s like falling into a set of drums

Sometimes you want to be with her

Sometimes you want to be alone

Sometimes you just hold hands

Sometimes you get down and get it on

There may not be an angel singing

But you’ll know it when it comes

You may not hear sweet heavenly music

Sometimes it’s like falling into a set of drums

Sometimes love ain’t pretty

Sometimes it’s downright blind

It’s not for the weak of heart

It don’t work at all on a sound mind

You may not want it

It’s the last thing you’re thinking of

But when it’s got you it’s got you

That’s the basics of love

When it’s got you it’s got you

That’s the basics of love
