#1.
You can t laugh..you can t cry..you re acting
kinda funny and you don t know why.
Cause your heart keeps beating like a big, bass drum
and the beat s getting stronger and it s so much fun.
And you keep on singing but the words are wrong..
and you can t stop laughing, baby, what s going on?
CHORUS:
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..RIFF:(x4)
#2.
You can t run..you can t hide..no matter what you do you re
on a ten-cent ride.
Going up, down, baby, and it s so much fun..and your heart keeps
beating like a big, bass drum.
And the beat s getting stronger and it just won t quit..better
hold on, baby, cause you know that it s..
CHORUS:
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through....RIFF:(x4)

OUTRO:
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through.
It s only love trying to get through..it s only love
trying to get through..(Fade.)
