Macklemore - Love Song lyrics

Yo, I'm gettin older now 23 years old and half of me just wants to make the move and go and settle down The other half's like, "Hell no, you better mess around. Don't let me down, especially when you got an album comin' out" When I first saw you, I'm like "Aw sh**, goddamit look what God did. Hail Mary Jesus!" Three years later I'm sittin' in our apartment thinkin' about all the places that my heart's been I mean its crazy right? This is maybe wife (?) - the one that found me in a drought, pulled me out and made me right Through the ups and downs we stuck it out and now you're leavin' town Another couple thousand miles south, which leads to crazy fights *Phew* And I don't know how to deal with it, I gotta be real with ya Uh, Each day I get filled with the - feelin' of realer love, I wanna continue, what But, This ain't the same old love song cause we been through the depths where all the trust is gone For months on end all we have is phone calls What, You know what makes it worth it? To watch someone progress To have them watch you Someone that you respect and value and cry to It's something so comforting cause it could bring so much truth But then magic can be stagnant and the relationship doesn't move The commitments to yourself And that you're always learning, to acknowledge you're both perfect and still wanna keep working To progress as a person but as an individual entity and then come together as a unit but still maintain that identity It sounds so elementary but it's so complex, it's the most delicate balance to get away from attachments But it could work I'm attemptin' it, Nah, we're livin' it To keep defining and redefining what love and commitment is Sing that, come on Every time I can't ignore you Every time I come around I see your face always movin' Yo, Just workin on dependency Sometimes the thing you love the most in this world you just gotta let it be It hurts to have to set it free And if it does, it doesn't work we both know that it was meant to breath Can't hide from experiences And there's so many people out there in this world were gonna find interestin' It's only a matter of time before that right connection Thousands of miles away, whatchu expect? You see I'm wonderin' where are you? Tearin' the label off of a beer as I'm sittin at this barstool You would tell me not to call you, to never use you as a fall through To sit with my emotion, but the lump in my throat builds as the heart rips open up And not even your voice alone can shift to go and close it shut So I just let it flow through me Feelin' lifted from the spirit like the bag in American Beauty And if your life truly flashes in front of you, when you die just know the best time of my life has been lovin' you I love you, you know Lets get em, c'mon We been together but in my head, We would break apart; I would hold my heart, tied inside But you knew that my soul could not be given to anybody easily Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh (Ohhhhhhh yeah) Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh It's a beautiful thing isn't it? One more time Ev, Every time I can't ignore you (Feels good don't it?) Every time I come around I see your face always movin'
