Lyrics
Soundtrack version
Ooh-ooh
Ooh... (hey-hey)
Yeah... (hey-hey)
What is love if it's not with you?
I know when you're alone, you feel it too
In your arms is where I long to be
'Cause being with you gives me sanity (hey!)
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it a crazy love?)
What's a song if you can't hear it too? (hey-hey)
Can't imagine dancing without you (hey-hey)
A shooting star ain't really nothin' to see (hey-hey)
If you're not right here standing next to me (hey-hey)
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it a crazy love?)
Oh, oh, oh, oh... (ooh...)
Oh, oh, oh, oh... (Rio...)
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh... (oh...)
What is love if it's not with you?
I know when you're alone, you feel it too
In your arms is where I long to be
'Cause being with you gives me sanity
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
What good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it amazing love?)
What good is love...
If it's not your love...?
What's a song? (is it a crazy love?)
What's the word if it's not with you? (is it amazing love?)
Yep, and it's not with you (am i your baby love?)
If you can't hear it too (is it a crazy love?)
Ooh...
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh...
I know when you're alone
You've got to feel it too
Oh! Yeah! Oh! Yeah!
What is love?
Listen to me, darling!
What is love if it's not with you?
Film version
Ooh...
What is love if it's not with you? (sente o ritmo!)
I know when you're alone, you feel it too (tá no Rio!)
In your arms is where I long to be (vem brincar com nós!)
'Cause being with you gives me sanity (welcome to Rio!)
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (Nico: is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (Nico: is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (Nico: am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love...? (Nico: is it a crazy love?)
Pedro:
This is a crazy party
I'm so glad I'm here with everybody
Baby, move your body, shake it to the ground
Break it, break it, break it, break it, break it down, Blu!
Blu: Me? What's a song if you can't hear it too? (woo!)
Jewel: Can't imagine dancing without you
Blu: A shooting star ain't really nothin' to see
Jewel: If you're not right here standing next to me (Blu: oh!)
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it amazing love?)
