Pullin’ out my big black book
Cause when I need a word defined that’s where I look
So I move to the l’s quick, fast, in a hurry
Threw on my specs, thought my vision was blurry
I looked again but to my dismay
It was black and white with no room for grey
Ya see, a big v stood beyond my word
And yo that’s when it hit me, that luv is a verb

Words come easy but don’t mean much
When the words they’re sayin’ we can’t put trust in
We’re talkin’ ’bout love in a different light
And if we all learn to love it would be just right

Why do so many people think they can just say the word love and have it mean so much to someone? Or worse yet... some people only want to hear it and dont want someone to really love them.... maybe its fear... I just dont know or understand.... Love really is a verb.... its more than just words.... its the actions behind words that make them truth.... if you say one thing and do they other, which would you believe? The actions, of course.... if you say you love someone and that you will always be there for them but there is no actions behind that..... you don't display that... or anything.... basically if there is no ACTION behind the WORD, then the word is invalid.

Love is a verb.... it means you must do something to love.... You cant just say it... you cant just hope that your words are going to be enough..... You have to have actions behind the words you say or your words mean nothing.

I'd be careful about trying to box that in. Love means alot to each and everyone of us. Each of us has a different way of expressing it. And what you may consider is true love most likely is different from what other people think. And what they believe at different times in their lives. Sure we may have a lot in common with what we believe Love is but a person's expression of their love for someone will IMHO vary greatly.

I think and believe that to hold anyone to your own standard of Love is wrong. It could also breed contempt and probably anger.

Sure we'd like to think and hope that a persons "actions" define what a person means or thinks but even that can be misleading and corrupt.

True Love? Heck I don't know and don't pretend to but I do know the Bible talks alot about it.

Damn Yankee! :)
