Love Affair
Well the water runs the river
And the river runs to the sea
And I'll come running to you baby
If you come running to me

But it gets kind of hard sometimes, so hard sometimes
Honey if you're not there, if you're not there
I want a sweet love, sweet love to share
So why don't we have a love affair?
Why don't we have a love affair?

Softly you were speaking
Whispering your words
Your head laid on my shoulder
And everything you said I heard

But it gets kind of hard sometimes, so hard sometimes
If you're not there, if you're not there
Cause there's a sweet love, sweet love, sweet love us to share
Why don't we have a love affair?
Why don't we have a love affair?

Why don't we have a love affiar?
So the whole world can see
Why don't we have a love affair?
Honey just you and me
Cause it gets kind hard sometimes
So hard sometimes
Baby when you're not there
When you're not there
So if we can't be together
Just say a little prayer
Why don't we have a love affair?
Why don't we have a love affair?

Baby just you and me
