You can make money, you can make good friends You can make mistakes and you can make amends You can make it easy when push comes to shove, but- You can't make love You can make advances, you can make big plans Plant sloppy kisses all over her hands You can tell her everything you're dreamin' of, but- You can't make love Love's a little word that been kicked around Used too much, beaten down What in the world are you thinkin' of? You can't make love You can go through the motions with your magic spells Buy all the potions that Fifth Avenue sells You can try to call down all the stars above, but- You can't make love You can buy her diamonds, you can go out in style You can make a promise, you can walk down the aisle You can make a life for her that fits like a glove, but- You can' t make love Oh, it takes so long You gotta be strong Before it's gone What in the world where you thinkin' of, boy- You can't make love
