What is Love?

When I was a child,

I knew a girl,

She sat across from me in school,

And I would chase her,

And pull her hair,

And I thought I knew,

What Love was.

When I got a bit older,

I knew a girl,

And she was the cutest,

Far above the rest,

I really really liked her,

And I thought I knew,

What Love was.

When I became a teen,

I knew a girl,

She was "the one,"

I liked her,

And she liked me back,

And I thought I knew,

What Love was.

When I was older still,

I knew a girl,

She had a lot to offer,

And loved me more than anything,

We were always together,

And I thought I knew,

What Love was.

And now today,

I know a girl,

She is everything I could ask for,

A loving, caring, friend,

Our love grows day by day,

And I think I know,

What Love is.
