 I used to think that finding love

Was finding someone to hold your hand.

I used to think that they loved you, no matter what.

I used to think that they would walk the shores of death and sickness with you,

Calm your fears, and dry your tears.

I used to think that some people were just plain lucky,

Finding love right away and keeping it, like a locket,

For their whole lives long.

I used to think that love was perfect.

Now I know that love isn't finding someone to hold your hand;

It's discovering someone who leads you by the hand.

I know that they'll love you, forever, no matter what.

I know that they won't just walk the shores of death and sickness with you, 

They'll plunge into the dark and stormy waters.

They calm your fears, wipe away your salty tears.

Some people aren't just plain lucky -

Finding love right away and keeping it, like a locket,

For their whole lives long - 

They've just been placed within something a little bigger than themselves.

This something, something that's bigger than lust, than small-town flings, than broken hearts,

This something must be perfect.

This something must be true love.
