  • Love
    Love will come find you
    Just to remind you
    Of who you are

    Oh, love
    It will forsake you
    Threaten to break you
    Take what you got

    Everybody laughs
    Everybody cries
    Oh, it could hurt you, baby
    But give a little try
    See, that's the thing about love

    Friends
    Sometimes will blind you
    Sneak up behind you
    You can't give enough

    Then life
    It will embrace you
    Totally amaze you
    So you don't give up

    Everybody laughs
    Everybody cries
    Sure, it could hurt you, baby
    But give a little try
    See that's the thing about love

    Oh, tell me that I'm not the only one
    That's going through it all
    Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm the only
    Going through it all
    But it's time
    Oh, it's time
    For me to shine, hey
    Say it's 'bout time
    Oh, its time
    For me to shine

    It's my time
    Said it's my time
    For me to shine, whoa
    Oh, it's my time
    It's 'bout time
    For me to shine

    'Cause everybody laughs
    And everybody cries
    Sure, it could hurt you, baby
    But give it a little try
    That's the thing about love
    That's the thing about love
    That's the thing about
    That's the thing about love Writer/s: Alicia Augelo-Cook, Linda Perry
