when I was 3 I scraped my elbow the bandaid healed it I learned that all pain goes away I didn't know I was learning to love you when I was 5 I hit my brother my mom put me in time out I learned that there are consequences to actions I didn't know I was learning to love you when I was 8 I wrote my crush a love letter he ripped it up and threw it away I learned boys are not nice I didn't know I was learning to love you when I was 13 a boy chased me around the playground he kissed me I learned that people can make you feel like you're flying I didn't know I was learning to love you when I was 16 a boy told me he loved me he left me along with my innocence I learned not everything is meant to be I didn't know I was learning to love you when I was 18 I gave up on finding love anytime soon I took on the world alone I learned how to love myself I didn't know I was learning to love you when I walk down the aisle I see a man who lights up my world I live my life for him he looked up and I knew I was finally ready to love you
