You Ain't Been In Love

(album: NATE SMITH - 2023)

I been through it all, yeah, so I thought
The highs and the lows, love takes you home
I've seen all the shows, heard all the songs
'Bout what it's like when it comes along

But I had never seen it, no
Guess I stopped believing

Until I found a love like that
The kind where you don't look back
'Cause you're too busy thanking God for what you have
Adding more bricks 'til you're built to last

Smile bright as the California sun
Get you high, only thing you want
Is to hold her in your arms 'til the stars go black
You ain't been in love, 'til you've been in love like that

Yeah, the green in her eyes, the gold on her skin
Tito's and lime, taste on her lips
Was the closest to heaven I'd ever been
All of my doubts, they were gone right then

When I found a love like that
The kind where you don't look back
'Cause you're too busy thanking God for what you have
Adding more bricks 'til you're built to last

Smile bright as the California sun
Get you high, only thing you want
Is to hold her in your arms 'til the stars go black
You ain't been in love, 'til you been in love like that
'Til you've been in love like that

I'd been praying, wishing
Turns out God was listening

'Cause I found a love like that
The kind where you don't look back
'Cause you're too busy thanking God for what you have
Adding more bricks 'til you're built to last

Smile bright as the California sun
Get you high, only thing you want
Is to hold her in your arms 'til the stars go black
You ain't been in love, 'til you been in love like that
'Til you been in love like that
