Stacey Kent - Make It Up lyrics

The history of love's told every
Day in songs and books
Like some big romantic kitchen filled
With way too many cooks
Everyone has got a theory
An opinion or an angle
And they treat them like they're precious
Diamonds dangling from a bangle

I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now
We'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along

I've tried to work it out myself
I've tried to have a plan
But, I've always ended up alone
Right back where I began
Now with you it's all so easy
There's no reason to look down
So let's just keep on flying with
Our heads up in the clouds

I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now
We'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along

It's the unexpected gifts that are the
Ones we hold the most dear
So here's to happy accidents and
Playing it by ear

I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now
We'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along

I love you and you love me
And I can't tell you why
You'd have thought by now
We'd have figured out
The reason and the rhyme
You love me and I love you
And it's been this way so long
That if we knew what were doing
We'd be doing it all wrong
So let's just make it up as we go along
