Sit down and listen 'cause I've got good news for you 
It was in the papers today 
Some physician had made a discovery 
This is what she had to say 
(Oh you know that) 

She said that every result she had backed her 
Claiming that love's a longevity factor 

So lovers live a little longer, baby 
You and me, we got a chance to live twice 
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice 
Lovers live a little longer, baby 
What a feeling when I hold you tight 
Lovers live a little longer, yeah 

I can imagine, I see in my fantasy 
I'll enjoy every day 
Makin' love is a dynamite drug, baby 
So why don't we start right away 
(Ah, please don't wait) 

I don't care if they're watching 'cause listen 
We've got a reason for each time we're kissing 

'Cause lovers live a little longer, baby 
You and me, we got a chance to live twice 
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice 
Lovers live a little longer, baby 
What a feeling when I hold you tight 
Lovers live a little longer, yeah 

I just don't care if they're watching 'cause listen 
We've got a reason for each time we're kissing 

'Cause lovers live a little longer, baby 
You and me, we got a chance to live twice 
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice 
Lovers live a little longer, baby 
What a feeling when I hold you tight 
Lovers live a little longer, yeah 

Lovers live a little longer, baby 
You and me, we got a chance to live twice 
Lovers live a little longer, yeah
