(tom shapiro, sharon vaughn, walter wilson)
Love is a powerful word
A little word that oughta mean something
Love better mean what it says
Say what you mean or it doesn't mean nothing
Love is a dangerous door to open
If you don't feel it when it's spoken
Chorus:
Sometimes i said it when i really didn't mean it
Just to throw away a promise i knew wasn't true
It meant a little less to me everytime i did it
But i never said i love you from the heart
Til i said it to you
You made me tell you the truth
And that truth was a total revelation
I see i have it in me
Now i can speak without any hesitation
I love you comes so freely
For the first time i believe me
Repeat chorus x2
