I always wanted to write a song For the love of my life And now I've met him I guess this is how it goes Is it too soon to say That you're the only one who ever stood beside me? Too soon to say That you're the only one who never meant to let me down? Babe, is it prophecy or just impatience? I'm not being brave or stupid if I were to challenge heartache I know we're made as one, but god broke us apart at creation day But it's ok I dreamed of you while I was waiting But it's not enough to say That I am everything I'm meant to be If only you are next to me The world would just obey While I defy the stars to be with you forever Find some way to tell you I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love 'Cause love seems so underrated Love is such an understatement Love is not as lovely as you Love is blind, you take my eyes 'Cause I ain't gonna need them
Take my heart, too Without you here it's never beating anyway Just feeling the words the poets never got to say Far and wide I search for words, the dictionary failed me Trying to describe simple magnitude of what I feel for you For moments, for lifetimes, hold you like you're my lifeline, baby But it's not enough to say That I am everything I'm meant to be If only you are next to me The world would just obey While I defy the stars to be with you forever Find some way to tell you I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love 'Cause love seems so underrated Love is such an understatement Love is not as lovely as you I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love I need a new word for love 'Cause love seems so underrated Love is such an understatement Love is not as lovely as you
