What Is Love Lyrics by Janelle Monae

Ooh ooh
Ooh... (hey hey)
Yeah... (hey hey)

What is love if it's not with you?
I know when you're alone you feel it too
In your arms is where I long to be
'Cause being with you gives me sanity (hey!)

Oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now

What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love? (is it a crazy love?)

What's a song if you can't hear it too? (hey hey)
Can't imagine dancing without you (hey hey)
A shooting star ain't really nothin' to see (hey hey)
You're not right here standing next to me (hey hey)

Oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now

What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love? (is it a crazy love?)

Oh, oh, oh, oh... (ooh...)
Oh, oh, oh, oh... (Rio...)
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh... (oh...)

What is love if it's not with you?
I know when you're alone you feel it too
In your arms is where I long to be
'Cause being with you gives me sanity

Oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now

What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love...
If it's not your love?

What's a song?
What's the word if it's not with you?
Yep, and it's not with you
If you can't hear it too
Ooh...
Oh... oh... oh...

I know when you're alone
You've got to feel it too
Oh! Yeah! Oh! Yeah!
What is love?
Listen to me, darling!
What is love if it's not with you?
