The genius of love

Roger Whittaker · The Genius Of Love [1986]

So many nights I've wondered,

How we made it through

And times when our dreams were lost

In the midnight blue

Just when our hearts were close and down

Baby, we found the side to turn the night around, well.



That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it works.

That's the way that it helps you through the night.

That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it is.

That's the way that it takes control

and never gives up the fight.

That's the genius of love.



Remember the moments love,

when lovin' slipped away.

Finding our body talk

and nothing left to stay.

Just when we thought we'd lost the flame.

Baby, your single touch

will like the fire again, well.



That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it works.

That's the way that it takes you by surprise.

That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it is.

It descents before your eyes

That's the genius of love.



That's the way that it makes you guess,

its twelve o clock,

we had a bad time,

then the day where nothing goes right.

Suddenly the two of us fight,

if we turn on the light in the middle of night.



That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it works.

That's the way that it helps you through the night.

That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it is.

That's the way that it takes control

and never gives up the fight.



That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it works.

That's the way that it takes you by surprise.

That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it is.

That's the way that it makes you guess

it descents before your eyes.



That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it works.

That's the way that it helps you through the night.

That's the genius of love.

That's the way that it is.

That's the way that it takes control

and never gives up the fight. . .
