What's Love Got to Do with It Lyrics

[00:21.43] You must understand, though the touch of your hand makes my pulse react
[00:29.47] That it's only the thrill of boy meeting girl, opposites attract
[00:36.76] It's physical
[00:42.65] Only logical
[00:46.63] You must try to ignore that it means more than that
[00:51.85] Oh-oh-oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
[00:57.24] What's love, but a second-hand emotion?
[01:02.00] What's love got to do, got to do with it?
[01:06.56] Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
[01:11.77] It may seem to you that I'm acting confused when you're close to me
[01:20.21] If I tend to look dazed, I read it some place, I got cause to be
[01:28.18] There's a name for it
[01:32.55] There's a phrase that fits
[01:37.61] But whatever the reason, you do it for me
[01:42.73] Oh-oh-oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
[01:48.31] What's love, but a second-hand emotion?
[01:53.67] What's love got to do, got to do with it?
[01:57.99] Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
[02:03.29] Who?
[02:07.03]
[02:22.39] I've been taking on a new direction
[02:26.22] But I have to say
[02:30.33] I've been thinking about my own protection
[02:35.98] It scares me to feel this way
[02:39.65] Oh-oh-oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
[02:46.44] What's love, but a second-hand emotion?
[02:51.40] What's love got to do, got to do with it?
[02:55.69] Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
[03:00.92] (What's love) got to do, got to do with it?
[03:04.98] What's love, but a sweet old-fashioned notion?
[03:09.75] What's love got to do, got to do with it?
[03:14.12] Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
[03:19.11] (What's love got to do) ooh, got to do with it?
[03:23.52] (What's love? A second-hand emotion)
[03:28.39] What's love got to do, got to do with it?
[03:32.67] Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
[03:37.55] (What's love) ooh-ooh (got to do with it?) got to do with it?
[03:43.74] (What's love) but a second...
[03:45.31]
