I never used to believe,
in the unseen,
always saw the sea,
as just another shade of green.

Who would've thought,
beauty was in flaws,
as his hand was put in hers,
reality was put on pause.

Now I see I them there,
and in their locked stare,
I can see there's something more,
than thin air.

I think love is believing,
in something that isn't there.

I think love is believing in the unseen,
something that isn't fair.

Once you take that chance,
once you take that fall,
take love for what it is,
you won't see anything else at all.

A girl with a broken heart,
a boy who saw her strength,
he gives a smile to start,
but she can't help but walk away.

Then comes the day,
she's shocked to realize,
how she can't recall her name,
but only the color of his eyes.

I think love is believing,
in something that isn't there.

I think love is believing in the unseen,
something that isn't fair.

Once you take that chance,
once you take that fall,
take love for what it is,
you won't see anything else at all.

It's understandable,
Who wants to face pain,
the one who gets broken,
the one who's left in the rain.

But he won't let her,
live a life without this chance,
grabs her hand out of the crowd,
takes her in the rain to dance.

Once you take that chance,
once you take that fall,
take love for what it is,
you won't see anything else at all.

It will make you wonder,
what love really means,
but what it really is,
is finding beauty in the unseen.

Inspired by my friend, Elaina, who asked me the question that sparked a novel of an answer.

An answer that I turned into a song.

What is love?
