The Night They Invented Love

Long before there were diamond rings
Long before there were liars
Long before there were songs to sing
Someone felt a desire and then

Someone noticed someone and then
Someone needed someone and then
Someone felt a way they'd never felt before

The night they invented love

In a world without kings and queens
Long before there was moonlight
Men and women were only things
Things that shook in the twilight and then

Someone noticed someone and then
Someone needed someone and then
Someone felt a way they'd never felt before

The night they invented love

We can do it again, my love
We can be enterprising
We can say it's from up above
I'll pretend you're surprising me

The night they invented love
