You're feeling low and oh so small
Then suddenly you're eight feet tall
She just walked in the room
And the gloomy room just glows
That's the way love is
That's how it goes

You're such a drag from nine 'til five
Then all at once you're so alive
It's just the way she winks her eye
Or wrinkles her nose
That's the way love is
That's how it goes

It's the world's oldest unsolved riddle
The kind of game you just can't win
And if [bad word] up with the answer
You're a better man sir, than I, Gunga Din

So when that tingle hits you deep
And you're tired but you just can't sleep
Don't you take my word
Go and ask anyone who knows
That's the way love is
That's how it goes

It's the world's oldest unsolved riddle
