Though you're past your baby days
Still you've got those baby ways
You're as bashful every time
When I'm with you
Though you're fond of me you say
Still you keep me far away
Oh why can't we love
Just like other sweethearts do?
What have we got lips for
What have we got arms for
Why do we have stars above?
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
What do we got eyes for
What we sigh sigh for
Why do we say "lovey dove?"
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
What is the dark for
What is the park for
Why are shady lanes
Why is a cozy corner so rosey
Every time it rains
What have I got you for
What do you got me for
What are we both thinking of?
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
And why do we have preachers
Why do we have teachers
Why do we have weddings too?
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
Now what is a gold band for
And what is the best man for
And why do we all say "I do?"
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
What do men slave for
What do they save for
And when cupid calls
Why do we go and spend all of our dough
To see Niagara Falls
Why we keep crying
Why we keep sighing
Why do we say "dovey dove?"
Oh you know, I know
Everything's made for love!
