about

The first tune of In Love, a love song about someone comfortable being alone who realizes they might want more.

lyrics

Never really needed no one else
I was always happy by myself
Never really needed no one else
When I found I wanted someone else

To love me, and hold me
To love me, and scold me
To love me, and show me

The meaning of love, the meaning of love

Girl, you know it took some time
But I've finally come to find
My world grows warmer and my days grow bright
When it's you I've got by my side

Don't you know I love you
It's written in your eyes
Don't you know I need your love
Like the earth needs the sky
You know there's something about you
It's in the way you groove
You know I can't live without you
It's your love I choose

Girl, you know it really took some time
But I've finally come to find
Without you there by my side
I could only live half a life

Never really needed no one else
I was always happy by myself
Never really needed no one else
When I found I needed someone else

To love me, and hold me
To love me, and scold me
To love me, and show me

The meaning of love, the meaning of love
The meaning of love, the meaning of love
The meaning of love, the meaning of love
The meaning of love
