People try to create feelings just the same as love
In the name of love, in the name of love
For the sake of silly passion make a game of love
In the name of love, in the name of love

Jumping up and down on your emotions
Just another way to break your heart
And it really makes you wonder what became of love
In the name of love

They make all the sacrifices for the sake of love
What they make of love, is old heartbreak of love
When there ain't no giving in the give and take of love
Put the blame on love, in the name of love

Jumping up and down on your emotions
Just another way to break your heart
Oh there really ain't no feeling quite the same as love
In the name of love

People try to create feelings just the same as love
And they do it in the name of love, in the name of love
For the sake of foolish passion make a game of love
And they do it in the name of love, do it in the name of love

Coming up and down with real devotion, oh
There's a better way to win my heart
And there really ain't no feeling quite the same as love
Not in the name of love

(I know) I know
(Heavy when you feel it) When you feel it
(Can't let go)
Can't let go (name of love)

(I know) I know
(When you've get to have it) When you've get to have it
(Can't say no) You just can't say no
(In the name of love)

(I know) I know
(Heavy when you feel it) When you feel it
(Can't let go)
(in the name of love)

(I know) I believe
(When you've get to have it) 
(Can't say no) When you've get to have it, you can't say no
(In the name of love)

(I know) I know
(Heavy when you feel it) When you feel it
(Can't let go)
You just can't let go (in the name of love)
