verse
Wouldn't want nobody else by my side
Ooh, and you can trust me
After all the lies I told you
Yeah, that's what love is
Don't nobody else deserve my time
verse
Never understood what it meant
It meant to submit to love
Hey, it's a blessing that you're in my life
When we shine, we shine together
chorus
Yeah, that's what love is
Don't nobody else deserve my eyes
When you demand my presence
It's hard to read the message
I stay on the defense to take away your leverage
'Til you put it in perspective
verse
Can't help but to respect it
Oh, now, I know what love is
My self esteem gets too low
You lift it right up through the ceiling, ooh-oh
outro
(Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh)
That's what love is (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
That's what love is (La-la-la-la-la-la)
I appreciate you (Oh-oh-oh, oh)
God bless your maker, hey (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh)
That's what love is (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
That's what love is (La-la-la-la-la-la)
