This Is Love

Story Behind The Song

I wrote this for my husband early in our marriage. On the day I went to track the vocals (all parts in one day) with my producer, hubby and I had a killer argument...just before I left for the studio! So, there I was, singing about 'This Is Love;' right after this huge fight. But as the session went on, the words of the song actually brought peace in my heart, and I remembered exactly why I'd married him. Went home and made up.

VS1
Is this a dream? Is this a fantasy
The love we both wanted
Now a reality
What once was a hop we held in our hearts
Has now come alive
Giving our life a start

CH
This is love-this is a dream come true
This is joy, spending each day with you
As we grow through all the years
Sharing laughter, sharing tears
We will know
This is love

VS2
Both of us found what we were praying for
We give to each other
All that we need, and more
Ours is a love that will last over time
A love without end
The forever and after kind

CH

BR
Two people never know just where the two will go
As they travel through love's open door
But now we both can see
What love was meant to be
Two hears joined as One forevermore

CH
