this is love

Five years ago

I wasn't wise to know

The love my heart would hold when I met you

And all my wins

Were suddenly eclipsed

When you arrived that sunny day in June

All my life, racing to bluer skies and finish lines for gold

How was I to know?

That this is love, love, love, love, love

My mama said one day I'd understand

That this is love, love, love, love, love

And it's so much better than I'd ever planned

Your smiling face

When you first said my name

A scene that I'll replay a million times

And every night

I watch you close your eyes

The greatest place on Earth is by your side

All this time, racing to bluer skies and finish lines for gold

How were we to know?

That this is love, love, love, love, love

My mama said one day that I'd understand

That this is love, love, love, love, love

And it's so much better than I'd ever planned

Ooh, love, love, love, love, love

Ooh, this is love, love, love, love, love

Baby boy, one day you'll understand

That this is love, love, love, love, love

And it'll be better than you'd ever planned

(It'll be better than you'd ever planned)

It'll be better than you'd ever planned
