If you've been feeling blue
Hey, it's been the same for me
Now I'm here with you
You're exactly what I need
Put your defenses down
Let me show you now
This heart to heart is meant to be
Everything about you feels so right
I only want to have you in my life
All I really had to sing was somebody there for me
And if we stay right here all night
Don't you know it's a matter of love
Don't you know it's a matter of trust
A connection between you and me
Can't you see it's a matter of trust, matter of us, matter of love
We've got magic here, it's the power of love I know
It's dancing in the air, I can feel the feeling grow
Put your defenses down
Let me hold you now
And I won't ever let you go
Everything about you feels so right
I only want to have you in my life
All I really had to sing was somebody there for me
And if we stay right here all night
Don't you know it's a matter of love
Don't you know it's a matter of trust
Nothing's ever gonna seperate us
You and me, it's a matter of trust, matter of us, matter of love
Put your defenses down
Let me hold you now
And I won't ever let you go
Say, everything about you feels so right
I only want to have you in my life
All I really had to sing was somebody there for me
And if we stay right here all night
Don't you know it's a matter of love
Don't you know it's a matter of trust
A connection between you and me
Can't you see it's a matter of trust, matter of us, matter of love
(it's a matter of love...)
