When you say love
You use it so lightly
But when I think of it
This is what comes to me
Lovin' me, where I am, how I am
Just for who I am
All my good and bad

Sure you think
It's not a possibility
Something so pure it changes me
When after all these years it's still the same
Just as strong as it was on the first day

This love, this love
The only love
That comes down from the Heavens
Why do you love?
This love, this love
Better than mothers
Better than fathers, oh oh

This love, this love
This love is your love
This love is my love
Why do you love?
This love, this love
From God to father
God up in Heaven, you oughta know

So you ask, what about me
Sounds real good
But doesn't fit the life I lead
But let me tell you something
There is nothin' new under the sun
An' I don't care what you've done
His heart is for everyone
This love

This love, this love
The only love it comes
That comes down from the Heavens
Why do you love?
This love, this love
Better than mothers
Better than fathers, oh oh

This love, this love
This love is your love
This love is my love
Why do you love?
This love, this love
From God to father
God up in Heaven, you oughta know

This love, this love
The only love it comes
That comes down from the Heavens
Why do you love?
This love, this love
Better than mothers
Better than fathers, oh oh

This love, this love
This love is your love
This love is my love
Why do you love?
This love, this love
From God to father
God up in Heaven, you oughta know

Everybody oughta know
His love is real
Said you really oughta know
Tell me can you feel
Everybody oughta know
I'm talking to you
Please don't walk away from

This love, this love
The only love it comes
That comes down from the Heavens
Why do you love?
This love, this love
Better than mothers
Better than fathers, oh oh

This love, this love
This love is your love
This love is my love
Why do you love?
This love, this love
From God to father
God up in Heaven, you oughta know

This love, this love
The only love it comes
That comes down from the Heavens
Why do you love?
This love, this love
Better than mothers
Better than fathers, oh oh

This love is my love
Why do you love?
This love, this love
From god to father
God up in Heaven, you oughta know

This love, this love
