What is the description of love
You know that funny feeling you get
That takes where you are and flutters your heart
As butterflies race through your chest

Is it in the face of a child
Or when your holding hands
Is love something spoken out loud
Or whispered on the wind

Is love something you get
Or is it something you give
And after it is you give it away
Can you get love back again

Does it come in a selection
Of different sizes and shapes
And if you happen to mix it
What are the colors love makes

What is the description of love
Is it to lay down your life
In the service of your fellow man
Or the ultimate sacrifice

Is love just a four letter word
That you might have once heard
Or is it the best of all cures
For the long broken heart

Is it in the beginning
As well as in the end
Is love the golden thread
That helps all things to mend

Is love something you say
Or is love something you show
I guess the description of love
Is all this and much more
