Love What did you mean by love? Is that the word you meant to whisper With kisses down her neck? Love What did you mean by that? And what did you expect would happen? She'd pat you on the back, stand up and start slow clappin', oh Love What did you mean by love? You must've meant "like you strongly", yeah Unless you meant "just your body" just enough to Stay But not enough to fall over Instead of givin' up What did you mean by love? ♪ Hope What did you mean you "hope so"? Did you mean you were less than likely To head over your heels, because your heart was just not There? That's what you could've said, yeah, yeah No hieroglyphics to decipher No beating 'round the bush, just set the bush on fire, but Love What did you mean by love? I think you meant "see you later", yeah "It's really been a bunch of fun but now it's done", yeah I know You probably have to go, yeah But I'd still like to know What did you mean by love? What did you mean? What did you mean? When you said love? What did you mean when you said love? ♪ Love It's more than just a word You thought that you could test the waters Droppin' the atom bomb, well, now the water's turnin' Red And all the fish are dead Floatin' around my head With all the other things I could have said to make you See Just what you mean to me, but The damage has been done What did you mean by love? What did you mean? What did you mean? When you said love? What did you mean when you said love? Love? What did you mean? What did you mean? When you said love? What did you mean when you said love?
