[F#m]They say there is a war, [A]between the man and the woman
(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
[F#m]I’ve never felt like this before, [A]my heart knew that I couldn’t
(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
[Bm]And then you take me in, [E]and
[A]Everything in me begins to feel like I belong
[F#m]Like everybody needs a home, [Bm]and when I take your hand
[E]Like the world has never held a man, [A]I know I cannot heal the hurt
[F#m]But I will hold you here forever, [Bm]if I [E]can, if I can


[Bm]And then I learned the truth
[E]How everything good in life seems to lead back to you
[A]And [Bm]every single time I run into your arms
[E]I [A]feel like I exist for love
[F#m][Bm]Like I [E]exist for love, [A]only for love


[F#m]I [A]can’t imagine how it is to be, forbidden from loving (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
[F#m]’Cause when you walked into my life, [A]I [A]could feel my life begin
[Bm]Like [E]I was torn apart the minute I was only born
[A]And you’re the other half
[F#m]The only thing that makes me whole, [Bm]I know it sounds like a lot
[E]But you really need to know, [A]we are leaning out for love
[F#m]And [Bm]we will lean for love forever, I know, [E]I love you so


[Bm]And then I learned the truth
[E] [A]How everything good in life seems to lead back to you
[F#m]And [Bm]every single time I run into your arms
[E]I [A]feel like I exist for love, [F#m]only for love


[Bm]And when you say my name, [E]like white horses on the waves
[A]I think it feels the same, [F#m]as an ocean in my veins
[Bm]And you’ll be diving in, [E] [A]like nothing is out of place
[F#m]And [Bm]we [E]exist for love, [A]only for love [F#m]


[Bm]And [E]I love you, I love you, I love you
[A]And [F#m]I [B]love you, I love you, I love you
