Deep in the heart

Love has many ways

Of touching your emotions

Taking control of you

And even in thought

Love can make you change

There's no way of controlling love

When it's part of you



Well you could be a married man

With two kids and a good woman

And you could give your heart and soul

I swear it don't mean nothin'

'Cause love can pull you deep into a spell

It will spin your mind around like a carousel



I'm telling you love

Boy makes things happen

You never know where it's coming from

You never know who you're gonna love

I'm telling you love makes things happen

You never know what you're gonna do

When ever true love takes hold of you



There's never a time

'Cause love will let you know

Love appears at the worst and even the best of times

Takes over your mind

Your heart is not your own

There's no way of controlling love

It controls your life



Well you could be a faithful girl

With a good heart and good intentions

And you could never leave your home

I swear there ain't no preventions

'Cause love can pull you deep into a spell

It will spin your mind around like a carousel



HOOK



There's nothing love can't make you do

When love takes hold of you

You can have the purest heart

And the finest attitude

But I swear that don't mean nothin'

When your heart's under the spell

It will spin your mind around like a carousel



I'm telling you love

Makes things happen

You never know where it's coming from

You never know who you're gonna love

I'm telling you love makes things happen

You never know what you're gonna do

When ever true love takes hold of you



You never know

You never know it

You never know

You're never gonna know it

Who you're gonna love

Who you're gonna love - baby



You never know

You never know it

You never know

You're never gonna know it

Who you're gonna know - it



You never know

You never know it

You never know

You never, never, never, never, never know

No, no, no, no

You never know



You never know

You never know it

You never know

You never, never, never, never, never know

No, no, no, no

You never know



You never know

You never know it

You never know

You never, never, never, never, never know

No, no, no, no

You never know
