Why talk about love when there's
so much to be done?
Words can't reveal the way I feel;
they never ring true.
Why talk about love when a kiss
is so much fun?
Why waste the time on words when
I'm with you?
The wisest men will always recommend
That actions speak louder than
words,
But what's the use? We've no excuse
Let's say no more, nothing more.
Night has just begun; the moon
is high above;
When there's so much to be done,
why should we talk about love?
Why talk about love when there's
so much to be done?
Why should we talk about love,
when a kiss is much more fun?
Why talk about love?
Why should we waste time, when we
know that you are mine?
Why should we always waste time,
when a kiss is so sublime?
La-la-la-la-la-la-do-do-do, la-la-la-la-la-la-do-do-do.
The wisest men will always recommend
That actions speak louder than
words,
So what's the use? We've no excuse
Let's say no more, la-la-la-da-da
nothing more.
Night has just begun; the moon
is high up above,
When there's so much to be done,
why should we, should we, should we talk about love?
The moon is oh, so bright,
The stars are out tonight,
Come on, honey, don't you take
your time;
La-da-do-da, la-da-do-da, tell
me you're mine!
The wisest men will always recommend
That actions speak louder than
words,
Oh, but what's the use? We've no
excuse;
Let's say no more, nothing more.
Night has just begun;
And we're having our fun,
Come on, honey,
The moon's above,
Why should we always, always talk
about love?
La-da-do-de-dang
Talk about love?
