‘What About Love’ is the closing song on Banks’s third album III. While she says she has no favourites among the songs she’s written, she’s called this one ‘life-changing’ and claims she ‘wouldn’t shut up about it’.

[Intro]
Hey, yeah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
[Verse 1]
I belong to no one
You belong to someone else, but
Maybe if we just rewind the tape
Give me one more chance to
Give me one more chance to show you, baby
Maybe if you just realized what we could be
Maybe if you just relearned my name, mmm
Maybe if you just relearned my name, mmm
[Chorus 1]
What about the life that we could make?
We could grow older
What about love?
What about love?
What about love?
What about love?
[Verse 2]
I belong to no one
You belong to someone else, but
Maybe if we just go back in time
Hurts to see you in real life, but
I can talk to you like this, is that okay?
That's the only way, that’s the only way, that's the only way
Promised me you would never love another, mmm
You said it when we were under the covers
[Chorus 2]
What about the way we kiss the same?
We could grow older
What about love?
What about love?
What about love?
What about love?
[Interlude]
Yeah
Ah, ah
Ah yeah, ah
Ah yeah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
[Bridge]
What about, what about, what about
What about love, what about love, babe?
What about, what about, what about
What about love, what about love?
What about, what about, what about
What about love, what about love, babe?
What about, what about, what about
What about love, what about love?
[Outro]
I love you
I love you

What About Love was produced by Buddy Ross.
BANKS released What About Love on Fri Jul 12 2019.
It’s a really guttural song about love, that ends with my little pure, perfect niece saying ‘I love you’,” Banks confirms. “I wanted to end on that note: no matter what happens, you’re going to go through so many ups and downs, you’re going to dig deep and have some pain to get over. Life happens, b...
