LYRICS
Is that the stars in the sky, or is it rain falling down?        [not 'far from now']
Will it burn me if I touched the sun,
so bit, so round?
Will I be truthful, yeah,
in choosing you as the one for me?

Is this love, baby,
or is it just confusion?

Oh my mind is so messed up, goin' 'round 'n' 'round...
Must there be all these colors,
without names, without sounds?
My heart burns with feelin', but...
Oh! But my mind is cold and reeling.
Is this love, baby,
or is it confsuion?

Oh, my head is pounding, pounding
going 'round 'n' 'round 'n' 'round 'n' 'round.
Must there always be these colors?
Without names, without sound?
My hears just burns with feeling,
but my heart is cold and reeling.

Is this love, baby,
or is it just confusion?

(Spoken)
Ah, you tell me, baby, 
is this some...
love or confusion...
ah, we must get together now,
to find out.
Exactly whatca're tryin' to do...
Love or confusion...
