It's the same old reason that I can't sleep at night
It's the same old reason that I can't eat a bite
It's the same old reason that the moon's up above
It's love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!
I asked the wise old owl in the old oak tree
If he knew about this feelin' that's been comin' over me
He gave me a wink and then he nodded his head
You could have knocked me over when he said
It's the same old reason that I can't sleep at night
It's the same old reason that I can't eat a bite
It's the same old reason that the moon's up above
It's love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!
Well, I didn't want to listen to an owl in a tree
So I had my family's doctor come and visit with me
I asked if he knew why I was sick and in bed
He took one look and then he said
It's the same old reason that I can't sleep at night
It's the same old reason that I can't eat a bite
It's the same old reason that the moon's up above
It's love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!
A doctor said the same as the owl did before
So I thought I'd put the question to the girl next door
She gave a big hug and a kiss to me
And she said "My darling, can't you see?"
Well, It's the same old reason that I can't sleep at night
It's the same old reason that I can't eat a bite
It's the same old reason that the moon's up above
It's love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!
