[INTRO — funky electric guitar riff, tight drums, bass groove, vocal ad-libs] [VERSE 1 — rhythmic male vocal, upbeat] Everybody talks about love Like it's butterflies and fireworks Like when the feeling fades away That means it ain't working anymore But love is more than what I feel More than saying, "I care" Love sees the broken heart And says, "I'm staying there" [PRE-CHORUS — building, melodic] Love doesn't ask, "What do I get?" Love asks, "What do you need?" Love doesn't say, "Make me happy" Love says, "I want you free" [CHORUS — huge, upbeat, gang vocals] LOVE WANTS YOUR GOOD EVEN WHEN IT COSTS ME LOVE TELLS THE TRUTH WHEN A LIE WOULD BE EASY LOVE DOESN'T USE LOVE DOESN'T CONTROL LOVE DOESN'T TAKE IT GIVES ITS SOUL I DON'T JUST WANT WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD I WANT WHAT MAKES YOU WHOLE THAT'S LOVE THAT'S LOVE [VERSE 2 — bouncy groove, energetic delivery] Love stays when the feeling fades Love serves when nobody knows Love says, "I'm sorry" first Love doesn't keep a score Love can say no When yes would be easier Love can call you higher Without becoming your accuser Love isn't weakness Love doesn't let the darkness win Sometimes loving someone means Having the guts to tell the truth again [PRE-CHORUS — bigger] Love doesn't ask, "What feels good?" Love asks, "What is good?" Love doesn't say, "Do whatever you want" Love says, "Become who you were made to be" [CHORUS — full band] LOVE WANTS YOUR GOOD EVEN WHEN IT COSTS ME LOVE TELLS THE TRUTH WHEN A LIE WOULD BE EASY LOVE DOESN'T USE LOVE DOESN'T CONTROL LOVE DOESN'T TAKE IT GIVES ITS SOUL I DON'T JUST WANT WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD I WANT WHAT MAKES YOU WHOLE THAT'S LOVE THAT'S LOVE [BRIDGE — music drops, bass + handclaps, conversational vocal] Here's the difference— I can want what you want And still not love you. I can give you everything And still want nothing good for you. Love goes deeper. Love says— "I want your joy. I want your peace. I want you free. I want you to become Who God made you to be." [BUILD — drums return, guitars rising] Not my comfort. Not my control. Not my convenience. Your good. Even when it's hard. Even when it hurts. Even when I get nothing back. [FINAL CHORUS — massive, joyful] LOVE WANTS YOUR GOOD EVEN WHEN IT COSTS ME LOVE TELLS THE TRUTH AND STILL WON'T LEAVE ME LOVE DOESN'T USE LOVE DOESN'T CONTROL LOVE DOESN'T TAKE IT GIVES ITS SOUL I DON'T JUST WANT WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD I WANT WHAT MAKES YOU WHOLE I WANT YOUR JOY I WANT YOUR PEACE I WANT YOU FREE I WANT YOU TO SEE THE PERSON GOD CREATED YOU TO BE THAT'S LOVE! [BREAKDOWN — drums + gang vocals] NOT WHAT I WANT! YOUR GOOD! NOT WHAT I GET! YOUR GOOD! NOT MY CONTROL! YOUR GOOD! THAT'S LOVE! [FINAL CHORUS — biggest, celebratory] LOVE WANTS YOUR GOOD LOVE GIVES IT ALL LOVE PICKS YOU UP WHEN YOU FALL LOVE TELLS THE TRUTH LOVE BEARS THE COST LOVE SEEKS YOUR GOOD NO MATTER WHAT'S LOST IF I LOVE YOU I'LL WILL YOUR GOOD NOT JUST YOUR COMFORT NOT JUST YOUR MOOD I'LL LOVE YOU THE WAY THAT CHRIST LOVES ME GIVING MY LIFE SO THAT YOU CAN BE FREE [OUTRO — funky guitar riff, handclaps, vocal harmonies] [MALE VOCAL] Love isn't just something you feel.
