[Verse 1]
Sometimes you can't say what you mean
Sometimes you can't do what you feel
But you know what love is
And what love does
And what love says
And what love means
And where love goes
And what love is

[Verse 2]
Sometimes you don't know what to do
Sometimes you don't know what to say
But you know that I know
And we know
And he knows
And she knows
And they know that it's okay

[Bridge 1]
You've got to be real
I don't know why sometimes it's so hard to do
You know the way it goes
So why don't you let the world know

[Verse 3]
Sometimes your friends are all confused
But they say the one confused is you
So do what you want to
And mean to
And plan to
And will do
And shall do 'cause you need to
[Bridge 2]
You got to be free
Why, oh, why is it sometimes so hard to see
You know the way it goes
So why don't you tell the world so

[Outro]
Sometimes you can't say what you mean
Sometimes you can't do anything
But you know what love is
And what love does
And what love says
And what love means
And where love goes
And what love needs
And what love brings
And what love gives
And what love has
And what love holds
And what love sees
And what love shows
And what love knows
And what love is
