Comfort & Mary
Love comes in different faces
It’s not always steamy and spontaneous
Combustible and passionate
It could be consideration and giving
It could be in respect and restraint
Love comes in different faces
Sometimes bearing gifts
Sometimes in words and action
Sometimes in heart-aching decisions
Bearing discipline and punishment
Love comes in different faces
In the insanity of a writer
In a passionate portrait of a painter
In the reprimand of a father
In the selflessness of a lover
Love comes in different faces
So by what unit do you measure mine
By what scale do you compare
Who has made you the judge
To decide if my love is real enough
