It's the only thing worth life and d**h It's the first moment and the final breath It's a broken heart keeping a solemn vow And a lost soul being found You pray for faith when it's hard to believe You choose to stay when it's easy to leave And when hope is gone You're the one who keeps holding on That's what love is When you give until there's nothing left And it makes you give the very best That's what love is It can make you laugh and make you cry It can let you down and lift you up so high When you find the only reason left to live That's what love is It's the dream you give up for someone else It's being strong when you're weak yourself Though it tears you up you trust again Hatred loses and forgiveness wins You turn your cheek when you want to fight Sell all you have and lay down your life And when hope is gone You're the one who keeps holding on That's what love is When you give until there's nothing left And it makes you give the very best That's what love is It can make you laugh and make you cry It can let you down and lift you up so high When you find the only reason left to live That's what love is It's reaching out and holding on So someone else will know Love is in the not letting go That's what love is When you give until there's nothing left And it makes you give the very best That's what love is It can make you laugh and make you cry It can let you down and lift you up so high When you find the only reason left to live That's what love is
