Make It Up - Stacey Kent

The history of love’s told every day in songs and books

Like some big romantic kitchen filled with way too many cooks

Everyone has got a theory, an opinion or an angle

And they treat them like they’re precious diamonds dangling from a bangle

I love you and you love me

And I can’t tell you why

You’d have thought by now we’d have figured out

The reason and the rhyme

You love me and I love you

And it’s been this way so long

That if we knew what were doing

We’d be doing it all wrong

So let’s just make it up as we go along

I’ve tried to work it out myself, I’ve tried to have a plan

But I’ve always ended up alone, right back where I began

Now with you it’s all so easy, there’s no reason to look down

So let’s just keep on flying with our heads up in the clouds

I love you and you love me

And I can’t tell you why

You’d have thought by now we’d have figured out

The reason and the rhyme

You love me and I love you

And it’s been this way so long

That if we knew what were doing

We’d be doing it all wrong

So let’s just make it up as we go along

It’s the unexpected gifts that are the ones we hold the most dear

So here’s to happy accidents and playing it by ear

I love you and you love me

And I can’t tell you why

You’d have thought by now we’d have figured out

The reason and the rhyme

You love me and I love you

And it’s been this way so long

That if we knew what were doing

We’d be doing it all wrong

So let’s just make it up as we go along

I love you and you love me

And I can’t tell you why

You’d have thought by now we’d have figured out

The reason and the rhyme

You love me and I love you

And it’s been this way so long

That if we knew what were doing

We’d be doing it all wrong

So let’s just make it up as we go along
