It’s Love (Betty Comden/Adolph Green)

It’s love
It’s love
Well, who would’ve thought it?
If this is love
Then why have I fought it
What a way to feel
I could touch the sky
What a way to feel
I have found my guy

It’s love
At last
I’ve someone to cheer for
It’s love at last
I’ve learned what I’m here for
I’ve heard it said
You know it when you see it
Well, I see it and I know it
It’s love

It’s love
It’s love
Well, who would’ve thought it?
If this is love
Then why have I fought it
What a way to feel
I could touch the sky
What a way to feel
I have found my guy

It’s love
At last
I have someone to cheer for
It’s love at last
I’ve learned what we’re here for
I’ve heard it said
You know it when you see it
Well, I see it
And I know it
It’s love
