There’s More to Love
I never understood though people always told me I should automatically know how love works Don’t be different, hide my quirks That’s what they all told me And if I did that, then maybe I would receive the ultimate goal Someone would come along and complete my soul But now I see that they were wrong There’s more than one way to sing that song
Love isn’t just another prize It has more than one shape and size It can be for friends, it can be for family And there’s plenty of it for you and me It isn’t something to guard or hoard Or be hidden away on a shelf and stored Love is meant to blossom and grow Now I see that there’s more to love than I could’ve known
I’ll take my love and share it There’s no need to compare it I can love as many people as I want to Old love doesn’t have to stop the new How I express my love is my choice As long as I respect my loved one’s voice To the people that are too blind to see Leave me alone, let me be me The more you try to silence us, the louder we’ll say That love doesn’t have to work just one way
This love I have is beautiful sparkling, radiant, and magical It’s mushy and friendly, safe and warm Even if it’s different from the norm Love doesn’t need “marry me” or “I do” It can be for many people, it’s true I’ll cherish my love as I grow Cos there’s always more to love than any of us could’ve known
