  • Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

    Here on a distant sunny shore of an island
    All the troubles of the world seem far away
    But here on the broken city streets of the island
    People work and live and love and struggle every day

    Here on the Creole-speaking side of the island
    They say, "ouh, fais-toi p'tit moun' déjà, pas fé petite enco'"
    Or in the truthful way they have of speaking on the island
    "You have too many kids already, don't make anymore"

    But love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour
    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour

    (L'amour c'est l'amour)

    Mila Jmoué is the finest girl who ever walked this island
    Even when, especially when she's walking away
    Something in her smile lets me believe in tomorrow
    Even though life is next to impossible today

    Maybe we won't be in each other's eyes forever
    Maybe all we can do is hold each other, and say

    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour

    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour

    Love is love
    Love is love
    Ah ooh

    Rick rides a motorbike through the worse slums of the city
    The father and the doctor to the poorest of the poor
    Raising up the future from the rubble of the past
    Here, they say, "l'espoir fait vivre", "hope makes life"

    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour
    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour
    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour
    Love is love
    Love is love
    Love is love
    L'amour c'est l'amour Writer/s: David Belle, Jackson Browne
