---------------------------- Lyrics by : Kathlene Rushing © 2025 Kathlene Rushing All rights reserved. ---------------------------- [Verse 1] This isn’t the love we see in movies. It’s not about flowers or grand gestures. It lives deeper than emotion, A steady current beneath everything that changes. It’s in the silence when no one knows what to say. It’s in the hand that reaches out anyway. It holds you when you're tired, It lifts you without asking why. --- [Pre-Chorus] There is nothing you need to do to deserve it. You were born with it already inside. Every breath carries it. Every moment invites it. --- [Chorus] Love is the way. Through the hard conversations, Through the fear that makes you shut down, Through the days that don’t make sense. Love doesn’t vanish. It stays. It waits. It carries. It isn’t always soft. But it never turns away. --- [Verse 2] It means showing up for people who may not know how to love you back. It means being gentle with yourself when you want to disappear. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being present. Again and again. You feel it when you choose peace. When you stop fighting yourself. When you listen more than you speak. When you forgive even when the pain still echoes. --- [Pre-Chorus] Love is not a command. It’s not a transaction. It’s the truth behind why we’re here. It’s the light inside. --- [Chorus] Love is the way. Through grief. Through failure. Through growing when it hurts. It is what endures. It is what restores. It is not a feeling. It is a path. God is love. And love is the way forward. --- [Bridge – Spoken/Sung] Every time you choose kindness, You’re taking a step on the path. Every time you let go of pride, You remember who you are. Every time you love without needing to be right, You rise. --- [Final Chorus] Love is the way. It doesn’t demand anything. It doesn’t force a shape or pace. It welcomes. It transforms. It is the place we return to. It is the truth we carry. It is who we are, underneath it all. --- Love is the way. Through grief. Through failure. Through growing when it hurts. It is what endures. It is what restores. It is not a feeling. It is a path. Love is the way.
