Verse 1
I used to think I understood
What people meant when they said love
A simple word, a simple truth
Two hearts fitting like a glove
But when you looked at me that night
Something deeper woke inside
Like every dream I ever had
Was standing there alive
Pre-Chorus
And suddenly the word forever
Didn't feel so far away
Chorus
I thought I loved you
But that was only the start
What lives between us now
Runs deeper than my heart
No word can hold it
No promise could define
Love was just the closest name
For what I feel inside…
Verse 2
You never had to say too much
Your touch already said it all
Every quiet moment shared
Built a world I couldn't call
Something stronger than a feeling
Something time can't pull apart
Pre-Chorus
Like destiny had always known
The way back to your heart
And every doubt I ever carried
Disappears when you're with me
Chorus
I thought I loved you
But that was only the start
What lives between us now
Runs deeper than my heart
No word can hold it
No promise could define
Love was just the closest name
For what I feel inside
Bridge
If the stars fell out of heaven
If the world forgot our names
I would still be right beside you
Through every joy and pain
Because the truth I feel for you
Was written long before
Outro
I thought I loved you
But now I finally see
What lives between our hearts
Is everything to me
No word can hold it
No promise could define
Love was just the closest name
For what I feel inside
