(Terry Skinner, J.L. Wallace) Chorus: It's gotta be love That keeps us together It's gotta be a feeling from the heart It's gotta be love It must last forever Or I won't let the fire start It's gotta be love I don't have time for a part time love affair I can't pretend it's love when it's not really there So don't you lead me on if you don't really care It's gotta be real And I got a feeling Repeat Chorus I can't just let you take my love and walk away And you must know that love is not a game I play So when you say you love me You better mean just what you say It's gotta be real And I got a feeling Repeat Chorus twice
