What’s Love Got to Do with It Lyrics

[Verse 1: Laura Vierra]
You must understand, oh, the touch of your hand
Makes my pulse react
That it's only the thrill of boy meetin' girl
Opposites attract

[Pre-Chorus: Laura Vierra]
It's physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore that it means more than that
Oh

[Chorus: Laura Vierra]
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

[Verse 2: Shane Gould]
It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
When you're close to me (Close to me)
If I tend to look dazed, I've read it someplace
I've got cause to be

[Pre-Chorus: Shane Gould, Shane Gould & Laura Vierra]
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits
But whatеver the reason, you do it for mе
Oh

[Chorus: Laura Vierra]
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Laura Vierra]
I've been takin' on a new direction
But I have to say
I've been thinking about my own protection
It scares me to feel this way
Oh

[Chorus: Laura Vierra]
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
What's love got to do, got to do with it (Got to do with it)
What's love but a sweet old-fashioned notion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

[Outro: Laura Vierra]
What's love got to do?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
