Todd Rundgren - The Verb 'To Love'

Some people tell me that love is a feeling or a possession
Somehow it seems so cold
And when they say love is sweet does it mean that you eat it?
Maybe you drink it, does it fill up an empty hole?

I'm lookin' for a love and I may not find it
You know it doesn't mean a thing without some action behind it

Please come home, I can hear them calling
Please come home, please don't leave us all alone
Your mama and your papa are crying all alone
You better let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we get the true version of the meaning of the verb 'To Love'
What does it mean to love?

And when somebody needs love, do they spend some money?
Say something funny, ask for some tenderness?
And when you wanna touch of love, do you lie on your back?
Stand on your head, how do you feel it best?

I'm looking for a love with no strings attached
To take me like I am, that's the only catch

Please come home, I can hear them calling
Please come home, please don't leave us all alone
Your wife and your lover are crying all alone
You better let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we learn the true version of the meaning of the verb 'To Love'

Does it mean any more, the more you talk about it?
Is it anymore real if you jump around and shout it?
I'm sick and tired of hearing 'bout everyone without it and
Too much talkin' sends me walkin'
Night is falling and everybody's calling for love

Everybody's lookin' for their one and only
It's only just a game 'cause they're scared to be lonely

Please come home, I can hear them calling
Please come home, please don't leave us all alone
Your brothers and your sisters are crying all alone
You got let it magnetize, learn to sacrifice
'Til we get the true version of the meaning of the verb 'To Love'
What does it mean to love?
