There is romance
And there is love
There are reports of a heart-robbing beauty whose victim I know
I can't hesitate or wait
'Cause I don't speak that language
I don't know that tone
I can't translate from right to wrong
I can just call it love
Yes, you heard right
I call it love

There is romance
And there is love
That seems to be the only system that they know of
But why be satisfied with only love
When there are games you should know of
Such as romance and turtledoves
Who wonder if it's love
I wanna call it love

Can we dance instead of walking?
We wanna break in to love's industry
Lie down where it's machinery slows down
When we've danced our socks off and it's late
We'll lie down to anticipate forever

When we romance
I feel a part
Of the loveliest human creature that I know by far
Who stays away from other boys
'Cause she knows where she's life or death or love
Where she is thought so highly of
Where someone calls her love
I wanna call it love

When we dance
Darling explosions!
We are chemistry without chemicals
A constant chain outside us both
Remember!
I've never felt so right before
And chances are it could be so
Can we dance instead of walking?
We wanna break into love's industry
Lie down where it's machinery slows down
When we've danced our socks off and it's late
We'll lie down to anticipate forever

There is romance that changes its course
Or just sad statistics I answer with anti-remorse
When I am satisfied don't tell me so
Just let me go on and on and on
And as I wake up by your side
I'll know that it is love
Or at least I call it love
