Love is intense. It's surreal
I've been looking for loopholes because I'd been denied direct access
to love

It struggles for air without us, and
As it always was...

Love bears the cross

W's are all that matter
and I wanted to win again for so long
I've been gone and green
hating on other teams
who'd actually fought for the dream
walking hand-in-hand with their chests out
Knowing all the while that mirrors don't lie;
love is not resentful
and neither am I
but wanted the joy you jump for, once more

I remember it's sensations...
trust, hope and triumph;
It does not deceive. It believes in itself.
It will not falter.

back then...

Everywhere I turned
was an even sweeter burn
and each block...
brighter than the last strip of heaven
every morning that broke
with its light in my eyes...
Warm on my face

Love is almighty. Isn't God love.
Love is the altar for spiritual sacrifices.
Here goes my body... There goes my soul
promise not to give my heart back broken
if I give it up whole
My worship... Our future
This is what it feels like inside the glow, and
As it always was...

Love comes shining through

If I knew then what I know now...

And we don't still look good
we just look good
We're a higher grade
The finest things still get better with age;
red wines. vintage ports
And the business. Our business.
Nobodies business. Good love
so we know to be patient
"Love suffers long."
Has been taken for a fool and for granted... Love gets the drift.
Real love builds you up. A home. Character. Love is all in

How we do is the sweetest thing?

If I could bottle the chill we all feel when someone says I love you...

Blessed to know a love rich enough I'd allocate my fortunes.

I don't wanna lose the sensation...
Faith, sanity or the fight to sustain the fire;
it's in our bellies. it struggles for air without us. it will not languish, and
As it always was...

Love endures

I say we celebrate it. Praise it.
Display it in public. Go to war with it
Love conquers evil every time out
and brought us together today
through these lines... through the rain
and into the clear.
It feels good to know your heart is certain.
There are worse places to be, than...

In Love
