Terror of Love

Words: Chris Malme
To the tune of "Power of Love" by Huey Lewis & the News
Inspired by the motion picture "Back To The Future"

My mother's in love and it's really so dumb,
'Cos I'm her son, from the future I've come.
If she falls for me - Oh heavens above,
Then time will change;
That's the terror of love.

Back to the Future is what I most crave,
But before I go, the past I must save.
Introduce my ma to my father to be
And hope their love will result in me!

        Until she meets him, I live in fear,
        If she don't fall for him I'll disappear.
        He's clumsy and shy and he's a fool sometimes,
        But he might just save my life....
        That's the terror of love,
        That's the terror of love!

The first thing to do is get them to that dance.
The next thing is to hope for a little romance.
If the band can't play, then I'll just take control,
And hope they're ready for rock and roll!

        Until they're kissing, I live in fear,
        If she don't fall for him I'll disappear.
        He's clumsy and shy and he's a fool sometimes
        But he might just save my life....

                They say that love will always conquer - most anything.
                If it is meant to be,
                Let's hope that destiny,
                Will take us back from where we came
                Through the terror of love!
                Through the terror of love!

Solo..

        But now they're kissing, no need to fear,
        And all my problems have just disappeared,
        Clumsy and shy, but he's won her 'round,
        He's lost his terror of love,
        He's lost his terror of love,
        He's lost his terror of love!
