Baby It's Love Lyrics

Sixty seconds of heavenly bliss
one minute of your sweet kiss
then my heart was all a mess
it’s love - baby, it’s love

Sixty minutes of you in my arms
one hour to learn of all your charms
then my heart’s like a fire alarm
it’s love - baby, it’s love

Twelve hours of you to tantalize
one day for me to realize
my heart flutters like butterflies
it’s love - baby, it’s love

Seven days - a wedding to plan
one week and then I begin
my life of a happy married man
it’s love - baby, it’s love

Four weeks of quarrels and kisses
one month of fighting the missus
I’m wondering now what the heck that this is
it’s love - baby, it’s love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm guessing it's about his wife. He proposed on the first date (she was a receptionist at a place where he had a meeting or something). Anyway, I think that's both completely romantic and completely crazy (and yes, she did accept, they got married and he died about 6 months later).
