[Verse 1]
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm colder, hey
[Pre-Chorus]
In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've travelled so far

[Chorus]

I wanna feel what love is
And I know you can show me
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna take a little time (Take a little time)

[Pre-Chorus]

I want you to show me
(And I'm feeling so much love)
I wanna feel what love is (I wanna feel)
And I know you can show me, hey, yeah
I wanna know what love is
Let's talk about love
I want you to show me
