Could it Be I’m in Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You move me, I'm burning
Such passion, I'm yearning
One thought keeps returning
Could it be I'm in love?
I tremble, it's thrilling
It scares me but I'm willing
It drains me but it's filling
Could it be I'm in love?

[Chorus]
You touch a place in me that feels so divine
I can't recall the pain that once was mine
Since we kissed I am not the same
I've blossomed in desire
Could it be, oh, I'm in love?

[Verse 2]
Falling, I'm flying
I'm laughing, now I'm crying
I'm born but it's like dying
Could it be I'm in love?
It's madness, I know it
I love it, do I show it?
It's too late, now I blow it
Could it be I'm in love?
[Chorus]
You touch a place in me that feels so divine
I can't recall the pain that once was mine
Since we kissed I am not the same
I've blossomed in desire
Could it be, ooh, I'm in love?

[Outro]
Ooh, oh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
(Could it be I'm in love?)
Dear me, oh, oh, dear, dear me
(Could it be I'm in love?)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
(Could it be I'm in love?)
Ooh, dear, dear me, oh, oh, dear, dear me
(Could it be I'm in love?)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
Oh, somebody help me, ooh
Does anybody hear me?
I think I might be in love, I don't know
(Could it be I'm in love?)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, dear, dear, dear, dear me
(Could it be I'm in love?)
Oh, I think I'm in love
(Could it be I'm in love?)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
