Love is the Thing The Imperials

Love is the thing that makes the world go round
Love is the thing that brings a smile from a frown
See the roses bloom in spring
Hear the birds as they sing
It's not the work of man
Do you understand?
Well, love is the thing

Love is the thing that glitters in the sky
Love is the thing that embraces [?]
See the pauper walk along hand in hand with the king
You might ask yourself
How can this be
Well, love is the key

I wonder where I'd be if Love had passed me by
I'd be like a bird without it's wings to fly
I'd die

Love is the thing that reaches to the sky
Love is the thing that makes the mountains high
You may ask where is this love
From beneath or above?
Please tell me oh my friend
Where is it then
Well, love is within
