Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you told me the truth, even if it really hurt
'Cause you knew a lie was worse (That's love)
When you let me borrow money that you didn't really have
'Cause you knew what I was worth (That's love)
When I was at my worst, you would tell me I would blow
When I thought that I would burst (That's love)
You taught me how to help others, and through that discovered
How to put myself first
[Verse 2]
And here we are again just confrontin' fears
Whether pain or gain, it's a bunch of tears
Blood sweats and peers probably disappear
When smoke starts to clear, their persistence near
Play attention to the folks who're fannin' the flames
They the ones who matter most in the gravity game
When stakes weigh you down, and they stay around
And pick up pieces of you off the ground
[Verse 3]
That's love
That's love
That's love
That's love
Ay, that's love
That's love, that's love, that's love
That's love, love, love, that's love
[Verse 4]
When you were givin' me advice that I seldom ever took
But your hand never shook (That's love)
Off knowin' that you were right, never shook, you're livin' right
Just gave me that look (That's love)
When I had to learn the hard way and you would let me fall
But never did it out of spite (That's love)
You told me never burn a bridge, if you build it, then you need it
Whether river or a brook
[Verse 5]
And here we are again at a cross of path
Darwin's our friendship strong as glass
But our strength lies in our first thoughts that laugh at
The things that bring most hurt hearts to clash
Funk past the ball, beat bounced the brawl
Pass it, penniless, blame games, and all
Had a few deals, time off to chill
But knowin' when you need space mean you feel in love
[Verse 6]
That's love
That's love
That's love
Ay, that's love
That's love
That's love, that's love
That's love, love, love, that's love
[Verse 7]
Ooh, we try to tell ourselves that we don't really need it anymore
As if a million dollars or the bottom of a bottle
Or a carton never cheated you before
So you started with the I don't need it, all I need is money
You can give it to me, but you'll never get it from me
Yeah, you refused to play, but you was still in the game
Like it or not, let me explain, now, see
There's a tough kind, a too much kind
A not enough kind, a rather rushed kind
And the abrupt kind, the go nuts kind
A hold up, maybe we should take it slow kind
A when you know kind, it started off as friends
But then over time, began to show kind
And if we love each other, we can't stay together
We'll do worst than better, gotta go kind
And that's love
[Verse 8]
That's love
That's love
That's love
Ay, that's love
That's love
That's love, that's love
That's love, love, love, that's love
