Their love is more than words
It is more than what’s in a look
Their love is more than what it takes
To write about it in a dime store book
Their love is more than the touch
And more than the meeting of two hearts
But, their love is not a timely one
Their stories are still being written
On different pages, chapters apart
But when he holds her, he knows
And when he looks at her, she knows
The love that they keep hidden in their eyes
As they go on living separate lies
Is their love more than love can survive
They pray love is what their love can survive
