What Is Just The Way You Are About

Expressing Love At Their Best
The definition of love is to feel great affection for, or a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. The idea of being in love is something many hope to have one day. If someone is in love, they would want to display their love and show their gratitude in the best way they can. Some people may make their significant other something, cook, or even just giving their time to them. Musicians like Bruno Mars and John Legend express their love through a song.

This shows how the purpose in “Just The Way You Are” gives a more loving effect than in John Legend’s “All of
