I talk to the man in the moon I said, "Sir is she coming back soon?" He smiled and he stated, son I'm over-rated I've had too much credit in those old love tunes I don't know a thing about love I just kind of hang here above I just watch from the sky Will love grow or will it die? I don't know a thing about love Then I asked him where is she tonight? You must see all things with your light He said, "Son I could tell you things that might kill you But I don't get involved in what's wrong or right" I don't know a thing about love I just kind of hang here above I just watch from the sky Will love grow or will it die? I don't know a thing about love He said, "I can move oceans when I take the notion Or make mountains tremble and rivers run dry" But in all matters human, remember there's someone In charge of those things way above you and I I don't know a thing about love I just kind of hang here above I just watch from the sky Will love grow or will it die? I don't know a thing about love I don't know a thing about love
