[Verse 1]
I got to know right now
It's got to be this time
I want to show you how
Going to make you change your mind
There's an empty chair at my table
There's an empty look in your eyes
Ooh, that's right
[Pre-Chorus]
I just happen to be a man
And you happen to be a woman
We happen to be together
Try to stop this thing coming
[Chorus]
Stand up, kick love into motion
Take a little love and shake it all around, stand up
Stand up, kick love into motion
Take me in your arms and throw me to the ground
Down to the ground, baby, come on
Stand up, stand up for love
[Verse 2]
I'm going to play your game
I want to play with fire
I want to breathe your air
Baby, going to take you there
If you lay your cards on the table
I'll lay my love on the line
Until you're mine
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
You couldn't get it much better
You never had it so good
Stand up together
And when you're ready to
You're going to get what you should
Little by little
Like a fine wine
My love is like a motor
Running all the time
Step by step
Easy and slow
On the stairway to heaven
What a way to go
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Stand up, kick love into motion
Take me in your arms and show me what you found, stand up
Stand up, kick love into motion
My love is like a motor running all the time, stand up
Stand up, yeah, kick love into motion
[Outro]
I said step by step
Go easy, go slow, stand up
Stand up, kick love into motion
On a stairway to heaven
What a way to go
