Love takes the patience of a saint

That thorny rose will make you bleed

But if you find the truest heart

It'll be exactly what you need

He knows I love him

Love him through and through

But it's give and take

It's what you've got to do

He loves hot and spicy food

But all my recipes are mild

He loves camping in the woods

And Hashing through the wild

He loves his big house

I want a condo in Malibu

But it's give and take

That gets us through

Sometimes, I really feel like running

Out the front door

Sometimes, it really feels like all-out war

Sometimes, it feels like all I do is compromise

But one look in his eyes and I know that

I'll love him forevermore.

He loves living on the edge

I like to plan ahead of time

I love sleeping in late

He acts like it's a crime

But he knows that I love him

I know he loves me too

It's give and take

That gets us through

Sometimes, I really feel like running

Out the front door

Sometimes, it really feels like all-out war

Sometimes, it feels like all I do is compromise

But one look in his eyes and I know that

I'll love him forevermore

Love takes the patience of a saint

That thorny rose will make you bleed

But if you find the truest heart

It'll be exactly what you need

You know the secret

That always rings true

It's give and take

That gets you through
