I am tired, I am drained
But the fight in me remains
I am weary, I am worn
Like I�??ve never been before

This is harder than I thought
Harder than I thought it�??d be
Harder than I thought
Takin�?? every part of me
Harder than I thought
So much harder than I thought it�??d be
But empty�??s never felt so full

This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like
Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
stretching me out to the end of my limits
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what real love
Feels like
This is what love feels like poured out,
used up still willin�?? to fight for it
This is what love feels like
Yeah, this is what it feels like

Like floating confetti
The beautiful gets messy
When the fall out finds the floor
But in the depths of the trenches
Is the richest of riches
Love is calling us to more

This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like
Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
stretching me out to the end of my limits
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what real love
Feels like
This is what love feels like poured out,
used up still willin�?? to fight for it
This is what love feels like
Yeah, this is what it feels like

And now these three remain
Faith, hope and love
But the greatest of these is love

It�??s worth everything you put in
Everything you put in...
Love
This is what it feels like

Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
stretching me out to the end of my limits

This is what love (this is what love)
Feels like
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like
This is what love (this is what love)
Feels like
This is what love (this is what love)
This is what love
Feels like

This is what love (this is what love)
Feels like

Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
Poured out, used up, still givin�??,
stretching me out to the end of my limits
