Lyrics
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 thinking 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 thinking if you were mine, I'd never let you go And that would be but beautiful, I know.

Love is tearful or it's gay It's a problem or it's play It's a heartache either way But it's beautiful

And I'm thinking if you were mine, I'd never let you go And that would be but beautiful, I know
