Four Little Letters
Love is indeed a very short word
Four little letters spell it out
But those letters can mean a lifetime
Of joy, there's absolutely no doubt
Sure you've heard this many times
It makes the world go round
The reason we create this aura about us
In spite of the ups and downs
The male is supposedly the dominant one
But that's when we hunted for food
Now the ladies seem to be running things
Using sex to control our moods
Works each time though we surely know
Her tactics are to encourage fidelity
We fall each time for that moment sublime
When we lose all sense of reality
