Love feels like fire
Like fire in my skin
It's tingling,
And aching all over
But it's warm
Love feels like lightning
Like booming thunder
Rattling and nervous
But after the storm,
Comes the rainbow
Love feels like water
Like water levels rising
And it's frightening going down
But the currents are calming
And the deeper you go, the more to discover
Love tastes sweet,
And bitter, and salty, and sour
It's a flavour no one has ever truly tasted
But everyone will say it tastes like everything
Everything and anything and nothing at all
Love sounds loud
But quiet too
Like hushed whispers,
Sweet nothings,
And screaming into megaphones
Love is the colour red,
And blue, and green, and yellow
Love comes in a spectrum of colour
Filling each space like colour-by-numbers
It's everything we see
Love is everything.

Love feels like fire
Like fire in my skin
It's tingling,
And aching all over
But it's warm
Love feels like lightning
Like booming thunder
Rattling and nervous
But after the storm,
Comes the rainbow
Love feels like water
Like water levels rising
And it's frightening going down
But the currents are calming
And the deeper you go, the more to discover
Love tastes sweet,
And bitter, and salty, and sour
It's a flavour no one has ever truly tasted
But everyone will say it tastes like everything
Everything and anything and nothing at all
Love sounds loud
But quiet too
Like hushed whispers,
Sweet nothings,
And screaming into megaphones
Love is the colour red,
And blue, and green, and yellow
Love comes in a spectrum of colour
Filling each space like colour-by-numbers
It's everything we see
Love is everything.
