From “I” to “Us”
(Talkin’ ‘bout Love)

She’s seventeen and she likes to be seen on his arm
He quit his senior year, now he drives a John Deere on a farm
Their families don’t want ‘em together
Because their skin is different shades
But, won’t they be surprised?
‘Cause there’s a new shade on the way
 
Talkin’ ‘bout Love
Oh, Man, and that’s a beautiful thing
Only fools think Love has rules
What a shallow way to think
When ever two people in this world
Switch from “I” to “Us”
How can that be a bad thing?
Just talkin’ ‘bout Love
 
Two ladies crashed their carts at the Clovis Walmart in New Mexico
They weren’t looking for Love, but right there it was by the Cheerios
At first they kept things quiet, because of what everyone might say
Now they let the whole world know and that’s a reason to Celebrate
 
Talkin’ ‘bout Love
Oh, Man, it’s such a beautiful thing
Only fools think Love has rules
What a backward way to think
Whenever two people in this world
Switch from “I” to “Us”
How can that be a bad thing?
Just talkin’ ‘bout Love
 
The most powerful force in the world is love
And, minds are changing, but still not enough
 
Talkin’ ‘bout Love
Oh, Man, it’s such a beautiful thing
Only fools think Love has rules
What a shallow way to think
Whenever two people in this world
Switch from “I” to “Us”
How can that be a bad thing? How can that be a bad thing?
Just talkin’ ‘bout Love
Just talkin’ ‘bout Love
