[Verse 1]
The history of love's told every day in songs and books
Like some big romantic kitchen filled with way too many cooks
Everyone has got a theory, an opinion or an angle
And they treat them like they're precious diamonds dangling from a bangle
[Chorus]
I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now we'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along
[Verse 2]
I've tried to work it out myself, I've tried to have a plan
But I've always ended up alone, right back where I began
Now with you it's all so easy, there's no reason to look down
So let's just keep on flying with our heads up in the clouds
[Chorus]
I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now we'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along
[Bridge]
It's the unexpected gifts that are the ones we hold the most dear
So here's to happy accidents and playing it by ear
[Chorus]
I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now we'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along
[Chorus]
I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now we'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along
The history of love's told every day in songs and books
Like some big romantic kitchen filled with way too many cooks

You love me and I love you
