[Intro]
Oh, yeah
Check me out on the good side here
Well, my baby's on the corner, and she's lookin' so fine
Put one and one together, and it blowed my mind
A man needs love to live, I'm the living proof
Catch that smile, and I hit the roof
Big double take, but you keep on walking
I'm in love
Once over, I'm overdone
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your lovin'
Come on, baby, take me home
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your lovin'
I'm just skin and bones
Goin' out my way, know my way around
The grass is never greener, and there's plenty around
All the other girls, they be put to shame
Over the edge, and here I'll stay
Got me on pins and needles
And she knows
She's mine, and ain't lettin' go
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your love
Baby, take me home
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your lovin'
I know
[Guitar solo]

She's mine, and ain't lettin' go
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your love
So this is love?
Ooh, I need your love
Baby, got to have your love
Ooh, I, ooh, I need, got to have that love
Baby, baby, still love
So this is love?
So this is love?
