What  we talk about,
When  we talk about love
What  we talk about baby
When  we talk about love
Talk  about a shot  from the hip
And  the sky above
Talk  about the glow  on the lip
What  the moon's made of
Talk  about things  you can't see
 When you talk about  me...
Do  you talk about love?
What  we talk about,
When  we talk about love
What  we talk about baby
When  we talk about love
Gimme  something i  can feel
Not  a mystery
Gimme  something i  can touch
Not  a fantasy
Gimme  something real,  baby
 When you talk about  love...
Do  you talk about me?
(Choir)  Get off that slumber
Come  on down  get of that  train
A  bend is easy to take
There's  a road up ahead
And  it's not that far
There's  a road up ahead
And  it ain't that far
Down  the road you  just don't know
What  it is you'll find
Down  the road, it's  a fact babe,
You  might as well be blind
It's  an odyssey so  please,
 When you reach that  road...
Don't  leave me behind
(Choir)  Get off that slumber
Come  on down  get of that  train
A  bend is easy to take
 (I'm not sure of the following...)
Deep  as the ocean
 Wide as the  sea
I'm  talking about  low visibility...
High  as mountain
 And harder to  climb
It  is in what  you seek
 Not in what  you find
When  you say things soft
You  know they ring so true
When  you say things loud
They  don't sound like you
Like  it when you  shake that thing
With  the finest touch
Like  it when you  talk so little
And  say so much
City  girls they like  to get rough
 But when you talk  about love...
They  don't hold no grudge.
