[Intro]
You know love is the most over used word in the world today
You know everybody uses the phrase 'I love you' so loosely
I bet you couldn't count the times you've said 'I love you'
Some people are confused, they think 'liking' is 'loving'
Oh, but there's a big difference between liking and love
You know this calls to mind
The last time you told me you loved me
So the next time you say I love you
I want you to know exactly what love really is

[Verse 1]
Love is not jealous
Love it does not brag
Love don't get puffed up
Love it never fails, it never fails

[Chorus]
So tell me, tell me that you love me
Now that you know what love really, really, really is
So tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
Come on, tell me
Show me that your love is real
That your love is real

[Interlude]
Know love rejoices over truth
Sometimes the truth hurts
But will stand the test of time
You know love bears all things and believes all things
Love hopes all things and it endures all things
So the next time you tell me you love me
I want you to know exactly what you're saying
[Verse 2]
'Cause love is not selfish
Love is not provoked, no no no
Love is long suffering
Love is oh so kind, it's oh so kind

[Chorus]
Now tell me, tell me that you love me
Now that you know what love, really, really, really is
Now tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
Come on, tell me, show me
That your love is real

[Post-Chorus]
Is it real? Is it real what you feel?
If not you're liking instead of loving
Is it real what you feel?
You tell me you love me
Can you look me in my eyes and say you love me?
Now that you know what love is

Is it real what you feel?
'Cause if not, you're liking instead of loving
Tell me is it real?
I got to know what you feel
'Cause what I feel is real
I can stand right here and say I love you
I can stand right here and say I love you baby
Now that you know what love is, is it real?

Is it real what you feel?
Now that you know, now that you know what love is all about
Can you tell me is it real?
Is it real? Is it real? Is it real?
Is it real what you feel?
