"18, and I'm outta here."
She had reached her independence day.
Never saw her mother's private tears
Or the times her daddy prayed to God to see her through.

Love comes true.
Love comes true.
Love comes true.
Love comes true.

"21 and I'm so confused,"
Getting up her nerve to call collect.
"I do not need help from anyone,
But there's a few little words I did neglect to say to you."

Love comes true
No turning back the clock.
Love comes true
Just waiting for a knock.
Love comes true
Lord, if she only knew.
Love comes true
What is love?

Love comes with patience.
Love lost is found.
32, married, and kids of her own,
She's come around.
She needs them both to help her through.

Love comes true
Love is sending out a light.
Love comes true
Love is gonna make it right.
Love comes true
Love is finally getting through.
Love comes true
