That's What Love Is

It's the only thing worth life and death

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
