Poppy song I came up with back in 1981. One doesn't like to place 'Wham' as an influence... but dang... it happens :-)

Story behind the song
Just a silly love song in a very poppy eighties style! Over the years it's only been performed thrice... and that with just acoustic guitar. Once at an evangelical rally in Wales when a Welsh guy confessed that love drove him to marry an English girl, once during a youth workshop I was leading on relationships, I think in 2013, and most recently at Trinity Youth Conference 2015. I'd love to hear it with a full band and kicking brass section. Hey... we can dream.
Lyrics
When You're in love
Adrian J Pratt
1.4.1981
When you're in love, It's bound to show
When you're in love, people will know,
When you're in love, your face is shining,
When you're in love, your spirits flying,
So don't be afraid of the feeling
That is growing up inside
And don't let people put you down
You know you shouldn't hide your feelings
If you have fallen in love.
When you're in love, people say you're changing
When you're in love,your life is rearranging
When you're in love, people don't understand
When you're in love, walk through the streets hand in hand
And don't be afraid of the feeling
That is growing up inside
And don't let people put you down
You know you shouldn't hide your feelings
If you have fallen in love.
When you're in love, don't be afraid
When you're in love, Ooo - you've got it made
When you're in love, well you're in love
You're in love, in love, in love, in love, in love.
So don't be afraid of the feeling
That is growing up inside
And don't let people put you down
You know you shouldn't hide your feelings
If you have fallen in love.
So don't be afraid of the feeling
That is growing up inside
And don't let people put you down
You know you shouldn't hide your feelings
If you have fallen in love.
