"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. 



Chorus 

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..." 



Chorus 

Love comes true... 

No turning back the clock, 

just waiting for a knock. 

Lord, if she only knew. 



Love comes with patience. 

Love lost is found. 

32, married, and kids for her own, 

she's come around. 

She needs them to help her through. 



Chorus 

Love comes true... 

Love is sending out a light. 

Love is gonna make it right. 

Love is finally getting through.
