He was sitting on a corner with a bottle of beer
And the same shopping cart he´d been pushing for years
A big smile on his face
Like the first day of spring
All the people looked the other way, but they heard him sing
And he sang

"Love
Love is a sweet thing"
He sang "love
Love is a sweet thing"

She shot out of Texas
Like a bullet from a gun
With a van full of hippies and a band on the run
She didn´t want to be famous
She just wanted to play
In old dive bars and pool halls she got up on stage
And she sang

"Love
Love is a sweet thing
Oh yes it is"
She sang "love
Love is a sweet, sweet thing"

It´s everywhere you look
If you look hard enough
Its really not hard to see
Yeah, once you put your arms around it
You can never get too much
Love is a sweet, sweet thing

It´s in the smile of a stranger
In the eyes of a child
On the corner of a crowded street
Its everywhere around us
Its always growing wild
Love is a sweet, sweet thing

Love
Love is a sweet thing
I sang "love, love, love
Love is a sweet thing
Love
Love is a sweet thing
Oh yes it is"

I sang "love, love, love
Love is a sweet, sweet thing
Oh, baby
Love
Love is a sweet thing"
I sang "love
Love is a sweet, sweet thing"
