I know, woah, the essence of your togetherness
Darling, is so divine
Well, it sends an air of happiness
To my soul and my mind

I know the way your eyes caress me
The look of love on your face
Sends me to a new dimension
Keeps me spinning way out in space

Well, it's love, it's love
It's not my imagination
How else can I explain the phenomenon?
Ooh, what sensation from this wonderful creation
Oh, babe, you're the music I hear

It's the sound of your voice
Darling, you're my rhapsody
My rhapsody, ooh, baby

Oh, the essence of your togetherness
Really, really turns me on
Even in a crowd of people
You and me can really be alone

Oh, baby, we're so together, darling
If you only knew
I'd give my life for you

Oh
Oh, baby
It's love, it's love
It's not my imagination
How else can I explain the phenomenon
Of sensation from this wonderful creation?

You're the music I hear
It's the sound of your voice
You're my rhapsody
If you only knew
I'd give my life for you
