Makes my pulse react
You must understand how the touch of your hand
Opposites attract
That it's only the thrill of boy meetin 'girl
It's physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore that it means more than that
Oh oh

What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

When you're close to me
It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
If I tend to look dazed I've read it someplace
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits
I've got cause to be

But whatever the reason you do it for me
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Oh oh
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

I've been takin 'on a new direction
But I have to say
I've been thinkin 'about my own protection
Huh
It scares me to feel this way
Oh ho
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?

(What's love?)
Got to do, got to do with it

Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
What's love but a sweet old fashioned notion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

(What's love?)
Got to do
(What's love but a second hand emotion?)
Huh, got to do with it
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
What's love?
(Ooh, ooh)
Got to do it
Got to do it
What's love?
(But a second hand emotion?)
