It’s Got to Be Love Lyrics by The Monitors

Motown Unreleased 1965

2015

[Intro]
Mmm
[Verse 1]
I, I, I, I can tell that there's doubt in your mind (Yeah)
When I say I love you, baby, you seem to think I'm lying
Now stop and think about all the things I've done for you
(I've done for you)
How can you feel the way you do?
[Chorus]
Whoa, it's got to be love (Got to be love)
It's got to be love (Got to be love)
Hey girl, can't you see how much you mean to me
Got to be love (Got to be love)
It's got to be love (Got to be love)
That's what it is
Got to be love, that's what it is
That's what it is
[Bridge]
Mmm
[Verse 2]
I, I, I, I have worked my fingers to the bone (Yeah)
Probably because I dig, I dig you and you alone
I've got this feeling in my heart from up above
(From up above)
Something keeps telling me, Richard, Richard
[Chorus]
Whoa, must be love (Got to be love)
It's got to be love (Got to be love)
Hey girl, can't you see you mean the world to me?
Got to be love (Got to be love, that's what it is)
Girl, it's got to be love (Got to be love)
[Outro]
And I'd work my fingers to the bone
Just for you and you alone
Now ain't that love? (Got to be love, that's what it is)
Woman, ain't that love? (Got to be love)
And I'd work my fingers to the bone
Just for you and you alone
Now ain't that love? (Got to be love, that's what it is)
Now, ain't that love? (Got to be love)
And I'd work my fingers to the bone
Just for you and you alone
Now ain't that love? (Got to be love, that's what it is)
Girl, ain't that love? (Got to be love)
And I'd work my fingers to the bone
