You must understand, though the touch of your hand makes my pulse react That it's only the thrill of boring me to go opposite to try It's physical, only logical You must try to ignore that it means more than that to me What's love got to do, got to do with it? What's love but a secondhand emotion? What's love got to do, got to do with it? I need the help when I can be broken It may seem to you that I'm acting confused when you're close to me If I tend to look dazed, I've made it some place I've got cause to be There's a name for it, there's a phrase I think you need But whatever the reason, you do it for me What's love got to do, got to do with it? What's love but a secondhand emotion? What's love got to do, got to do with it? I need the help when I can be broken I've been thinking of a new direction But I have to say I've been thinking about my own protection It scares me to feel this way What's love got to do, got to do with it? What's love but a secondhand emotion? What's love got to do, got to do with it? I need the help when I can be broken What's love got to do, got to do with it? What's love but a secondhand emotion? What's love got to do, got to do with it? I need the help when I can be broken
