I Believe in Love

I heard this song for the first time a few weeks ago on one of the personal sites for another woman who lives with an addict in and out of recovery. I thought it was a beautiful song - you can watch the Dixie Chicks perform it live on youtube. (copy and paste the link below.)

I made a promise to myself
Locked it away deep down inside
Told my heart we'd wait it out
Swore we'd never compromise
Oh I'd rather be alone
Like I am tonight
Than settle for the kind of love
That fades before the morning light

Silence stared me in the face
And I finally heard its voice
It seemed to softly say
That in love you have a choice
Today i got the answer
And there's a world of truth behind it
Love is out there waiting somewhere
You just have to go and find it

I believe in love, I believe in love
A love that's real, love that's strong
Love that lives on and on
Yes I believe in love
Yes I believe in love

- Dixie Chicks
