WELL, THE THINGS YOU SAY
AND THE THINGS YOU DO,
BABY, SOMEDAY WILL COME BACK ON YOU
IT'S TIME TO REACH AND TURN ANOTHER PAGE
YOU CAN SLIP AND FALL
ALL ALONG THE WAY,
NOT MUCH THOUGHT ABOUT IT THAT I CAN SAY
EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
WELL, YOU PLAY THE GAME
BUT YOU JUST CAN'T WIN,
THEY PUT YOU AT THE BACK AND START ALL OVER AGAIN
YOU PLACE YOUR BETS,
YOU SAY IT FITS YOU LIKE A GLOVE
THEN YOU DREAM AWAY,
DREAM AGAIN,
UNTIL YOUR DREAM COMES TRUE NOW, MY FRIEND,
'CAUSE EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
SAID, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME
IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
SOME SAY THE MAN IS CRAZY,
OTHERS GENTLE AS A DOVE
BUT IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, (all in the name, all in the name, all in the name)
ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
SOME SAY THE MAN IS CRAZY,
OTHERS GENTLE AS A DOVE
EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
THEY PUT YOU IN THE BACK AND START ALL OVER AGAIN
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, (all in the name)
ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE
