When You Say Love

I'm thinking of a word that has been

Knocked up and overused

You could say it's lost all meaning

From so much abuse



But when you say love, OH



Most everything I ever wanted

Doesn't really have a name

But baby you're as close as I've come and

I know that it sounds strange



But when you say love, OH



So open up my heart-shaped box

It's full of combination locks

I've swallowed all my love-sick pills

To keep from getting chills

Look at all the books I've read

In my lonely single bed



But when you say love, OH
