Verse 1 I used to think love was a straight line Point A to B, no detours But every time I tried to rush it I ran into closed doors You showed me patience in silence Lessons without a sound Every scar had a meaning Every fall slowed me down Pre-Hook I been unlearning the lies I was taught What I wanted versus what I need I was chasing a feeling You were shaping me Hook The shape of love ain’t perfect It bends when it’s real Some edges cut deep Some curves help you heal The shape of love keeps changing Every time we grow It ain’t what I imagined But it’s the truest thing I know Verse 2 I see myself clearer in your eyes When I’m stripped of my pride You don’t ask me to be flawless Just honest when I slide We don’t fit what they picture But we fit when it’s dark Every break we survived Left a map on my heart Pre-Hook 2 I was built for defense You were built for the truth You don’t love me how I’m easy You love me how I’m bruised Hook The shape of love ain’t perfect It don’t stay the same Some nights we lose balance Some days we find faith The shape of love keeps shifting With the weight that we hold It ain’t always pretty But it never feels cold Bridge If love was just pleasure I’d already be gone But you stay through the questions And that’s how I know it’s strong We fold, we stretch, we realign Every season redraws the lines If it hurts, it’s still ours If it lasts, it’s divine Final Hook / Outro The shape of love ain’t flawless But it fits me now Every crack tells a story Every scar makes a vow I don’t need it to be easy I just need it to be true I finally learned the shape of love The moment it led me to you (soft hums, ad-libs fading)
