At Your Best (You Are Love) Lyrics

[Intro]
Let me know, let me know
Oh-oh, let me know, let me know
Let me know

[Verse 1]
When I feel what I feel
Sometimes, it's hard to tell you so
You may not be in the mood to learn
What you think you know, oh
There are times when I find
You wanna keep yourself from me
When I don't have the strength
I'm just a mirror of what I see, hey

[Chorus]
But at your best, you are love
You're a positive, motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, lеt me know

[Verse 2]
Let me know whеn you feel what you feel
Oh, how hard for me to understand
So many things have taken place before this love affair began, oh
But if you feel, oh, like I feel
Confusion can give way to doubt
For there are times when I fall short of what I say
What I say I'm all about, all about
[Chorus]
But at your best, you are love
You're a positive, motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know, oh
Know, know

[Bridge]
Tell me what it is (Tell me what it is)
There's no need to make believe
Make believe, no need to make believe
Look beyond your own (Look beyond your own)
Try to find another place for me
Find a place, find a place for me
'Cause

[Chorus]
At your best, you are love
You're a positive, motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know

[Outro]
Let me know, let me know, oh
Know, oh
Let me know
