[Verse 1] I see the pictures on a Friday night Candles glowing, roses wrapped up tight A packed-up car for a night away And I wonder why my life don’t look that way I catch myself counting what’s not here The things they say should prove love’s sincere And I forget what’s standing right in front of me Getting lost in what I think I’m missing [Pre-Chorus] Comparison’s a quiet thief It takes the joy right out of me I start believing love’s a list Instead of something lived like this [Chorus] ’Cause love don’t always show up wrapped in red Or reservations made weeks ahead Sometimes it’s work boots by the door And tired hands that still give more It’s laughing till we can’t breathe Kids climbing all over his knees I don’t need what I thought I sought When I remember the love I’ve already got [Verse 2] He may not buy me flowers just because But he builds the things I’ve been dreaming of Lets me paint the walls, move every chair Says, “Do what you want, I don’t care” He works all day, comes home worn thin Still finds the floor to wrestle them And somehow finds a way to make me smile In his own unique simple style [Pre-Chorus 2] Love ain’t always loud or planned Sometimes it’s showing up and staying in It’s choosing us when no one sees That’s the kind of love that carries me [Chorus] ’Cause love don’t always look like a surprise Or a perfect night under city lights Sometimes it’s faithfulness and time And a heart that’s steady, strong, and kind It’s playfulness and inside jokes Knowing me better than most I don’t need what I thought I sought When I remember the love I’ve already got [Bridge] I don’t want greener grass If it costs me gratitude I don’t want someone else’s proof And miss the truth That love’s been here all along In every sacrifice, every small thing done It may not shine the way I’ve been told But it’s real, it’s deep, and it’s gold [Final Chorus] So I’ll stop chasing what they say love should be And open my eyes to what’s in front of me He may not love me the way they say But he loves me in the everyday Through laughter, mess, and hard-fought days In ordinary, beautiful ways I don’t need what I once thought I’ve got the love I’ve already got [Outro] Yeah, I love the love I’ve already got

Love I’ve Already Got
