Lyrics Basics of Love - Ray Wylie Hubbard

There ain't no time like the present
To tell you about the basics of love
For a while there's nothing there,
Then it's all you think of
Sometimes love ain't easy, you don't know how to start
It's not just words, and music, and song
You use your hands as well as your heart
There may not be an angel singing
But you'll know it when it comes
You may not hear sweet heavenly music
Sometimes it's like falling into a set of drums
Sometimes you want to be with her
Sometimes you want to be alone
Sometimes you just hold hands
Sometimes you get down and get it on

There may not be an angel singing
But you'll know it when it comes
You may not hear sweet heavenly music
Sometimes it's like falling into a set of drums
Sometimes love ain't pretty
Sometimes it's downright blind
It's not for the weak of heart
It don't work at all on a sound mind

You may not want it
It's the last thing you're thinking of
But when it's got you it's got you
That's the basics of love
When it's got you it's got you
That's the basics of love
