Funny Thing About Love

Was it the midnight hour or the crescent moon
Or sweet magnolia made me speak too soon?
When I said I love you, you looked the other way
Can't take it back-wish it was yesterday
There's 'bout a thousand words I coulda got away with
But the night blooming jasmine overtook my senses
& I know deep down you feel the same way too so
Kiss me boy and lay down your defenses
CHORUS
Well, it's a hot summer night-cool river flowin'
And it's a funny thing about love-
You can get there without knowing

We watched a comet dance across the southern sky
I saw the future right there in your eyes
So tell me now or tell me later-take your time or lead the way
But that silly grin says it all-there's only one thing left to say
CHORUS
It's a sunny spring morning, hot coffee flowin'
And it's a funny thing about being in love-
You can get there without knowin'
BRIDGE
When I look back on that awkward night
The risk was well worth takin'
I took a leap of faith-and you did, too
Even if you were fakin'

When you reach that moment-it's fish or cut bait
Wait a minute too long, it might be too late
Three simple words turn into so much more
When you know it's right, it's what you're livin' for
CHORUS
It's a lazy winter day-storm clouds overflowin'
And it's a funny thing about love-give it half a chance
It just keeps growin'
And it's a funny thing about love-
You can get there without knowing
