that thing we call love

i like seeing hugs outside of coffee shops

cause it reminds me that two people can be in love.

there's dust on my bible, did you know?

i don't wanna believe if he can't believe in me.

i like seeing playful love

the kind that makes you smile.

when hands get close, they almost touch

then linger for awhile.

wrap around into a boundless love

they'll push shoulders, splash water, and unconditionally profess

that thing we call love and four letters of progress.

it gives me a hope that there's someone who believes

that their wife will look a little something like me.

but if there's not, i'm happy for you

keep holding hands, keep saying i do

for who am i to get in the way

of that one in a billion chance

that you'll find someone who loves you

someone who will hold your hand.

so hugs outside of coffee shops

and figures that meet as one

give me hope for some kind of future

and that thing we call love.
