Dave Barnes - God Gave Me You

I've been a walking heartache
I've made a mess of me
The person that I've been lately
Ain't who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubts
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you
- Dave Barnes

What is true love?...
It's more than her being on your mind 24/7.
It's more than smiling every time you hear "your song".
It's more than dreaming about your future together.
It's more than cheesy lines that always make you feel happy.
It's more than actually being happy all the time...
What is true love?...
It ISN'T perfect.
It's the "I love you's" and "I miss you's".
It's the "I hate you's" and "I'm sorry's".
It's when you realize that each of you aren't perfect.
It's when you realize you're perfect for each other.
It's when your memories together bring both tears and joy.
What is true love?...
It's when you've matured together.
It's when you've put your relationship to the test.
It's when you find out the one you're with will never bail...no matter how hard it gets.
...is what they say
