You must understand, though the touch of your hand makes my pulse react

That it's only the thrill of boy meeting girl, opposites attract

It's physical

Only logical

You must try to ignore that it means more than that

Oh-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?

It may seem to you that I'm acting confused when you're close to me

If I tend to look dazed, I read it some place, I got cause to be

There's a name for it

There's a phrase that fits

But whatever the reason, you do it for me

Oh-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?

Who?

I've been taking on a new direction

But I have to say

I've been thinking about my own protection

It scares me to feel this way

Oh-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?

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

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) ooh, got to do with it?

(What's love? 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?

(What's love) ooh-ooh (got to do with it?) got to do with it?
