What Love Is (Interlude)

(Sung:)
I guess this is what love is
A very strange and mysterious thing
All these mixed up feelings
Can toy with someone's head
If you're not careful
Things can get out of control
And soon
You might not be in love anymore
Take it slow
Take it slow
Love can mean many different things
There are upsides
There are downsides
(Spoken:)
Look up, you have someone new to love
And spend time with when you really need someone
Look down, you have almost no free time
No time to just be you and you alone
(Sung:)
I guess this is what love is
This is what love is
Some can live without love
Some can't live without
Some people, they just don't know
What love is all about
Love is a many splendored thing
It can put you right where you belong
I guess this is what love is
I guess this is what love is
What
Love
Is. . .
I know that this is
I know that this is
I know that this is. . .
That this is what love is
I guess this is what love is
A very strange and mysterious thing
All these mixed up feelings
Can toy with someone's head
If you're not careful
Things can get out of control
And soon
You might not be in love anymore
Take it slow
Take it slow
Love can mean many different things
There are upsides
There are downsides
(Spoken:)
Look up, you have someone new to love
And spend time with when you really need someone
Look down, you have almost no free time
No time to just be you and you alone
