If This Is Love

(album: What A Night - 1977)

Yes, I'm just afraid I'm not the kind who makes it last forever
And in my selfish way I think I'm clever until you cry
Then you want to leave, you can't let it go because you're strong
But one day without your love seems so long
And I sigh, how I sigh

If this is love, darling, now is the time to wake up
Hurting words can really shake up someone's life
If this is love, darling, it's time to stop pretending
We'll never have a happy ending while we cry

Isn't it a shame how one excuse still leads into another
After all this time we hurt each other
Isn't it a shame
Time to make a change, time to find the things we both believe in
Let's talk about the staying not the leaving

If this is love, darling, now is the time to wake up
Hurting words can really shake up someone's life
If this is love, darling, it's time to stop pretending
We'll never have a happy ending 'til we try

If this is love, darling, now is the time to wake up
Hurting words can really shake up someone's life
If this is love, darling, it's time to stop pretending
We'll never have a happy ending while we cry

If this is love, darling, now is the time to wake up
Hurting words can really shake up someone's life
If this is love, darling, it's time to stop pretending
We'll never have a happy ending while we cry
