'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning
'Cause I give you all, all of me

'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast,
I want this to last. Need you by my side
'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static
And every time we kiss I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so
I can't let you go. Want you in my life

Even though we may be hopeless hearts

Every bone screaming
(I don't know what we should do)
All I know is, darling,
I was made for loving you

Artist: Lucas Graham
Album: 3 (The Purple Album)
Released: 2018
Written by: David LaBrel, Morten Pilegaard, Jaramye Daniels, Lukas Graham, Morten Ristorp, Don S Stefano, James Alan, James Alan
This wonderfully written track was from Lucas Grahams and his own thoughts about love and family. He once said in an interview with genius.com that this song mostly came from his thoughts about the possibility of losing his family after his daughter was born. He realized that he could lose his wife and child if he becomes a bad husband and father. This gave Lucas a whole new appreciation to what he had. This song expresses how he sees his family and how much love he has for them. It even made his wife cry when she first heard it. A totally inspiring and emotional love song that would make us feel how beautiful love is and we should never take it for granted.
'Cause when you love someone
You open up your heart
When you love someone
You make room
If you love someone
And you're not afraid to lose 'em
You'll probably never love someone like I do
You'll probably never love someone like I do
— Lukas Graham (Love Someone)11. "Just the Way You Are" by Bruno Mars
