Analysis of Love Like This



I never knew love like this
Got me dreaming about our first kiss
Walking on the beach hand in hand
Seeing our footprints side by side in the sand
I thought that I had closed love's door
Now here you are got me wanting more
I love you
This much I know is true
In the future I see you and me
Walking in our destiny
I hope you're the one that I can spend my life with
Because truth be told, I never knew love like this.
