I never thought love would come in a box
Through rain and the cold
Just knocking on locks
Another night, another name
And you smiled and nothing felt the same
You laughed, I fumbled, lost in your stare
Left my heart right then and there
Every order, every mile
Just to see that little smile
But I saw him standing there
Touching you like he belonged
So I drove away, told myself
Guess I had it all wrong
But love ain't something you erase
It lingers in the empty space
Weeks went by, the road felt long
No more laughter, no more songs
Then a note slipped through the door
Hey, don't you come no more
I let the silence build a wall
Did I ever know you at all
But love ain't meant to fade away
So I turned around that day
But I saw him standing there
Touching you like he belonged
So I drove away, told myself
Guess I had it all wrong
But love ain't something you erase
It lingers in the empty space
You opened up and I could see
The truth was never my enemy
That man was never what I thought
Oh, love is lost when fear is caught
But now I'm standing here
No more doubts, no more wrongs
With one kiss, you pulled me close
Like I was home all along
Love ain't something you erase
It finds it's way through time and space
Now every road, every mile
Leads me back to your smile
And love, oh love, is finally home
A delivery I'll never postpone
