You Can't Make Love

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
