When I tell you I love you, by d.s.l.

When I tell you I love you

It means that I love you 

 

Not like the loving of a massage 

Or the loving of microwaved pastas 

 

Not like the loving of a pretty face

Or the loving of a blue dress laced 

 

Not like the loving of mint chocolate 

Or the loving of fancy dinner dates

 

Not like the loving of a first kiss 

Or the loving of past days’ bliss 

 

When I tell you I love you

It means that I love you 

 

Not like the loving of being rich 

Or the loving of scratching an itch

 

Not like the loving of expensive perfume

Or the loving of Valentine’s Day balloons 

 

Not like the loving of deep fried calamari

Or the loving of coffee or tea 

 

Not like the loving of loving you 

But the loving of you just you

 

When I tell you I love you

It means that I love you
