Love Isn't Love - The Verve Pipe

Love isn’t love just because you wear a ring

It isn’t love in whispered words, promising everything

When every tear you cry

Makes you wish it would have passed you by

Love isn’t love when every day’s a judgment day

Love isn’t love because your heart breaks

It can just as well fade away

To let it slowly die

Is more devastating than goodbye

Love wasn’t love when you were discreet with it

Or when you took to the streets with it

Your fist pounding pavement for the beauty that was

Love wasn’t love when you were right in the thick of it

When you were absolutely sick with it

With what you thought was love

Love isn’t grand, it’s a world of little things

A simple song, a melody that you can’t help but sing

And the stormy skies

They don’t ever take you by surprise

Love wasn’t love when you would have died for it

Or when you broke down and cried for it

When every tear fell bitter for the beauty that was

Love wasn’t love even when you were mired in it

Sometimes you got so tired of it

What you thought was love

It takes two to love

The one thing that you both are worthy of

Love is everything

They’ll walk a million miles to bring you

Love

Love, you find love when you’re most afraid of it

But when you find it, you’ll bleed for it

Every drop falls painless for the beauty that is

Love is still love even when you’re weighed down by it

Sometimes you’re screaming to hell with it

Yet longing for their love
