You know love is the most over used word in the world today
|
You know everybody uses the phrase I love you so loosely
|
I bet you couldn't count the times you've said I love you
|
Some people are confused, they think liking is loving
|
Oh, but there's a big difference between liking and love
|
|
You know this calls to mind the last time you told me you loved me
|
So the next time you say I love you
|
I want you to know exactly what love really is
|
|
Love is not jealous, love it does not brag
|
Love don't get puffed up, love it never fails, it never fails
|
So tell me, tell me that you love me
|
Now that you know what love really, really, really is
|
So tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
|
Come on, tell me, show me that your love is real, that your love is real
|
|
Know love rejoices over truth
|
Sometimes the truth hurts but will stand the test of time
|
You know love bears all things and believes all things
|
Love hopes all things and endures all things
|
So the next time you tell me you love me
|
I want you to know exactly what you're saying
|
|
'Cause love is not selfish, love is not provoked, no no no
|
Love is long suffering, love is oh so kind, it's oh so kind
|
Now tell me, tell me that you love me
|
Now that you know what love, really, really, really is
|
Now tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
|
Come on, tell me, show me that your love is real
|
|
Is it real? Is it real what you feel?
|
If not you're liking instead of loving
|
Is it real what you feel?
|
You tell me you love me
|
Can you look me in my eyes and say you love me?
|
Now that you know what love is
|
|
Is it real what you feel?
|
'Cause if not, you're liking instead of loving
|
Tell me is it real?
|
I got to know what you feel
|
'Cause what I feel is real
|
|
I can stand right here and say I love you
|
I can stand right here and say I love you baby
|
Now that you know what love is, is it real?
|
|
Is it real what you feel?
|
Now that you know, now that you know what love is all about
|
Can you tell me is it real?
|
Is it real? Is it real? Is it real?
|
Is it real what you feel?
