(

I had my doubts that I'd find someone
Who looked like you, who'd be like me
And what feels wrong from the start
Is so easily pulled apart
But still I wanted it to be
I guess I wanted it far too much
I overlooked the small details
But it's from these little things
And the pleasures that they bring
That our hopes succeed or fail
(
)
We were only making love
We were only making love
Well I thought that we were really doing something
But we were only making love
(Intro)
(
)
And what feels so good at bedtime
Doesn't always make it through the day
I've seen people just go on
They got a world they built upon
And nothing left to say
I guess I wanted it far too much
I couldn't see it happening
The change that comes upon us slow
And changes us before you know
Into a different same old thing
(Chorus)
(solo)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The heat of summer was ours to share
Well you can hide but I can tell
That when we feel the fall
And see the letters on the wall
These are the sad words that they'll spell
(
)
We were only making love
We were only making love
Well I thought that we were really doing something
The passion rained down on us from above
It's strange that now this far from where it happened
It'd be easy to see
That we were only making love
