If Love WAS a machine

Wires plastic circuits and metal

Makes sense, they're components of machines.

Hugs, kisses, and hand holding

What the fluorine are those?

Displays of affection for the ones you love

What is this love you speak of?

It is an emotion, a feeling you have.

It's what separates us from machines.

It is what I don't fully understand!

You cannot describe a feeling, it's not a theory or fact.

It is too complex to understand

Think of it as a machine and you'll-

If love was a machine I'd have a full understanding of it!

No! Love is nothing like a machine.

A feeling can not follow laws.

A feeling can not have limitations.

A feeling can not be compared to machines!

Love is nothing like a machine

Love can never be a machine!

Love is a feeling and feelings are complex.

The heart is a machine and machines are simple.

If love was a machine I'd open it up and see how it works.

If love was a machine I'd fix what's gone a mess.

If love was a machine it'll run smoothly.

If love was a machine I'd know what's true and what's false.

If love was a machine... I'd understand everything involving it.

But love is not a machine!

It'll never be a machine!

And I'll never understand it all.

But don't you wish love was a machine?

Then you'd understand it.

You would know it.

You could learn-

I could reverse engineer it

I could see how it works.

How it starts, how it stops

How to notice it, how to find it

If love was a machine I could do it all.

If love was a machine-

-You'd know when you have it

You'd know all the people you love

And all that love you*

If love was a machine, I'd understand it,

at least, a bit more
