written by John and Johanna Hall 1975 Hall Music & Mojohanna Music divisions of Open End Music (BMI) Love I am told is the deepest mystery Harder to fathom than any sea More precious than all the earth and sky But nobody can tell you why Give one heart Get back two That's the paradox of I love you So when you give your heart You get one too That's the paradox of I love you If it is love for which you've cried You know how it feels on moon's dark side If your baby love's you right You can have skyrockets any old night Give one heart Get back two That's the paradox of I love you So when you give your heart You get one too That's the paradox of I love you And you can't stop saying it I love you Can't stop saying it I love you Keep on saying it saying it I won't stop until you say it too Love can be gentle soft and tame Or so rough you wouldn't know its name Shy and wild like a runaway child Storms of love always end up mild Give one heart Get back two That's the paradox of I love you So when you give your heart You get one too That's the paradox of I love you Give your heart Get back two That's the paradox of I love you So when you give your heart Get one too That's the paradox of I love you
