[D] [G] [Dm] [G] Perhaps love is like a [Em] resting place, [C] a shelter from the [D] storm.
[G] It exists to [Em] give you comfort, [Am] it is there to [D] keep you [Bm] warm.
And in those [Em] times of trouble, [C] when you are [D] most alone,
[Am] the memory [D] of love [G] will bring you [D] home.
[G] Perhaps love is like [Em] a window, [C] perhaps an open [D] door.
[G] It invites [Em] you to come closer, [Am] it wants to show you [D] [Bm] more.
And even [Em] if you lose [C] yourself and don't [D] know what to do,
[Am] the memory [D] of love [G] will see you through.
[Bm]
Love to [Em] some is like a [C] cloud, to [G] some a strong steel.
[Bm] For some [Em] a way of living, [C] for [D] some a [G] way to feel.
[Bm] And some say [Em] love is holding [C] on, [D] some [G] say letting [Bm] go.
Some say [Em] love is everything, [Am] some [D] say they don't know.
[G] Perhaps [Em] love is like the ocean, full [C] of conflict, full [D] of pain.
Like [G] a fire when [Em] it's cold outside, [Am] or thunder when [D] it rains.
[Bm] If I should [Em] live forever [C] and all my dreams [D] come true,
[Am] my memories [D] of you will [G] be of you.

[Bm] Some say [Em] love is everything, [Am] and some [D] say they don't know.
[G] Perhaps [Em] love is like the mountains, [C] full of conflict, [D] full of change.
[G] Like a fire when [Em] it's cold outside, or [Am] thunder when [D] it rains.
[Bm] If I should [Em] live forever [C] and all my [D] dreams come true,
[Am] my memories [D] of love [G] will be of you.
