Just beyond the stairs and the mailbox squares
Thereâs an elevator up to you
And with each small stride
One story at time
My heartâll have some work to do
Down the longest hall of halogen bulbs
Welcome mats and dusty ferns
We got dinner going wrong at your neighborâs place
With a roast in the oven as it burns
And Iâm a mess now
With this lump up in my throat
I came to tell you the truth now
âCause this is love
Canât ya hear me knockinâ
Canât you hear me knockinâ at your door
Canât you hear me callinâ
Canât you hear me callinâ to your window
And canât you see this loveâs worth fightinâ for
Iâm over the moon
Under your spell
And ready for more
More of your good good lovinâ
More of your good good love
Well maybe you moved out weeks ago
Never telling anyone your plans
Maybe those calls you made last week
Were from pay-phone in the south of France
And with outstretched arms and a bulletproof heart
Iâm leaning up against wall
And this wooden frame separates our fate
Standing eighty-seven inches tall
Hope youâre having a good day
The kind that makes you wanna smile
Hope youâre ready to hear me
âCause this is Love
CHORUS
And Iâm a mess now
With this lump up in my throat
I came to tell you the truth now
this is love
CHORUS
