That's What Love Is

Ooh, mmm
White lace, wildflower bouquet and a dress I can't afford
First man I ever loved, ready to place my hand in yours
And, oh, your eyes fill with tears
I know we've worked so hard to get here
We say for better or worse
And what I mean in those two words is

Here's to the nights that we spent crying
The weight of the world hanging on our shoulders
Here's to the days of bills unpaid
And being afraid of getting older
Jobs, they came and went
So did most our friends
Felt like the rain would never quit
But you took my hand and we slow danced through all of it
And that's what love is

I still remember the first time, that first night
You held me in your arms
Pulled me in and we locked eyes, my left hand in your right
You danced me across the kitchen floor and
Oh, now you're spinning me around
In a tux and a gown in this crowded room
Everyone we love is watching
But it feels like it's just me and you, singing

Here's to the nights that we spent crying
The weight of the world hanging on our shoulders
Here's to the days of bills unpaid
And being afraid of getting older
Jobs, they came and went
So did most our friends
Felt like the rain would never quit
But you took my hand and we slow danced through all of it
And that's what love is, yeah

It's a promise for a lifetime
More than a ring on our finger, it's more than tonight
In our story, it's a chapter
It's the day of "I do" and the happily ever after that
So everybody raise your glass

Here's to the nights that we spent crying
The weight of the world hanging on our shoulders
Here's to the days of bills unpaid
God, I can't wait 'til we grow old and
Jobs, they'll come and go
But we'll always know when the rain won't seem to quit
Darling, take my hand and we'll slow danced through all of it
'Cause that's what love is
