The Lyrics (free translation from the Swedish original):
WHAT IS LOVE? (Free translation from the original version VAD ÄR KÄRLEK by Dani)
Love is so red, red as a flower, a rose so sweet
Love is so blue, blue as the sky and the bluebells too
Love is the feeling you´ll have as you lay in the field and the sun shines so warm up above
Love is so free, free as the shriek from a gull in flight
Love is a song, rising so sweet t´wards the endless sky
Love is the feeling of joy, that you´ll have on return
to discover the lights are all on, back home
Love is having a good friend
who´ll be true till the end
and when you´re in need, puts his arm around you, making you feel warm inside yes, so warm there inside
Love can be blind, blind as a flake in a winter wind
Love can be deaf, deaf as the bare trees without no leaves
Love is the gift that was yours, to be able to choose, to be able to tell right from wrong
solo
Love is to aid, aiding someone who just needs a hand
Love is so sweet, sweet as the sweetest of summer times
Love is a hair turning gray, to be able to share everything with the one who´s so dear
Yes that is love, that is love, yes that is love !!!
