That's Love

You said you'd wait for me,
but I don't believe it.
I can't make you any promises.
You may be waiting longer than you planned.
I was just about to quit, and then you said,

"Your hands aren't steady.
Your knees are shaking.
But don't you worry,
I'll be waiting.
Just pull yourself together now,
and when you're done,
I'll be right here, 'cause Baby that's love."

You said you needed space,
and I gave it to you.
You said you didn't know if you'd come home.
I wrote a note.
You were just about to quit, but then you read what I wrote,

"Your hands aren't steady.
Your knees are shaking.
But don't you worry,
I'll be waiting.
Go ahead, go and find yourself,
and when you're done,
I'll be right here, 'cause Baby that's love."

I heard a knock at the front door,
and when I opened it up, you were kneeling on the floor.
You said,

"My knee is steady,
But my hand is shaking.
Just say yes, 'cause I've been waiting.
Promise you'll be home every time I come home."

And I said,
"Yes, 'cause Baby that's love."

My hands aren't steady.
My knees are shaking.
But don't you worry,
I'll be waiting.
Oh, 'cause baby that's love.
