08 - Still want love

[Verse 1 – careful, reflective] You learned the signs You learned the cost What you gave What you lost You don’t rush You don’t run You just notice What’s begun [Pre-Chorus – gentle lift, honest] You’ve been alone But not closed You’ve been hurt But not froze [Chorus – mantra, sing-along] Still want love Still want love (soft clarity) I know how Still want love Still want love [Verse 2 – slightly fuller, trusting] You keep your feet On solid ground Listen close To every sound No fairy tales No disguise Just open hands And open eyes [Pre-Chorus – steadier resolve] You don’t forget What it took You just choose A second look [Chorus – repeat exactly] Still want love Still want love I know how Still want love Still want love [Bridge – pull back, reflective] Hope isn’t young Hope is wise It’s learned the truth Behind the lies [Final Chorus – calm authority, let listener sing] Still want love Still want love (space – breathe) Still want love Still want love
