Tonight doesn’t feel like it did last nightI’m feeling warm and different insideSince I saw your face, since I looked in your eyesThere’s a change in this placeI think the love factor’s highWhen the love factor’s high and two hearts collideYou don’t even try and that’s when you’ll findThe one that feels right, the one for all timeIt’s hard to deny when the love factor’s highSometimes it flies and sometimes it fallsAnd sometimes your back ends up against the wallAs I hold you close and we dance in timeYeah, I think I know the love factor’s highWhen the love factor’s high and two hearts collideYou don’t even try, that’s when you’ll findThe one that feels right, the one for all timeIt’s hard to deny when the love factor’s highIt’s hard to deny when the love factor’s high
