I hear it all the time,
People say it like it’s so easily understood.
But a word is just a word,
Until you embrace it,
Until you give it meaning,
Until you actually feel it.
I never knew the word love had any real depth to it.
People throw it around like it’s nothing.
But once you actually feel it,
You know it.
And it’s the best feeling every imaginable.
Love is the way you look into my eyes,
And I don’t dare to glance away.
Love is the way I never want to let go,
Of the hand you’ve trusted me to hold.
Love is the way I feel when I’m with you.
A smile is inevitable,
And I dread the moment that being with you ends.
Love is looking into the future,
And seeing just the same.
You’ve added meaning to the words
I never thought I’d understand.
And you’ve added a feeling to my heart,
I never thought was possible.
