What Love Never was (incomplete)

I don't think Love was ever meant to be understood
No, Love was meant to be felt because the love we claim to understand is exactly what Love never was

I wonder If Love was ever supposed to be commercialized
If Love was supposed to be bought
If Love really comes with a pricetag
This is what love never was

What Love never was
Love was never supposed to hurt
It was supposed to feel great
It was supposed to be about finding your soul mate

Now its about broken souls finding each other
Mending each other
growing together
This is what Love never was

Love was supposed to be close to God
It was never supposed to be far from me
It was never supposed to be far from you
It was supposed to bring us together

Love was like a mother holding her child
Like a father protecting his daughter
Like a marriage lasting forever
Like a stranger helping another

Love was like a Girl falling for a boy
And a boy Loving a girl
Love was young and blissful
But todays Love is what Love never was
