(Terry Skinner, J.L. Wallace)

Chorus:
It's gotta be love
That keeps us together
It's gotta be a feeling from the heart
It's gotta be love
It must last forever
Or I won't let the fire start
It's gotta be love

I don't have time for a part time love affair
I can't pretend it's love when it's not really there
So don't you lead me on if you don't really care
It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling

Repeat Chorus

I can't just let you take my love and walk away
And you must know that love is not a game I play
So when you say you love me
You better mean just what you say

It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling

Repeat Chorus twice
